Jeff Corwin, wildlife biologist, author and host of Animal Planet’s Corwin’s Quest, spoke on campus in February as part of UNT’s Distinguished Lecture Series.

Corwin’s presentation featured several exotic animals, including amphibians and reptiles, with audience members joining him onstage to interact with the critters. He discussed his insights into culture, animal behaviors and interactions among humans and animals. An expert on wildlife, ecology and conservation, Corwin has appeared on the NBC Today Show, Good Morning America, CBS Morning Show, Tonight Show with Jay Leno and the Oprah Winfrey Show.

The Distinguished Lecture Series brings world-class speakers to UNT several times throughout the year. Previous speakers include former President George W. Bush, former Mexican President Vicente Fox, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Suze Orman.
