Abstract:
"Star of Animal Planet's Evan Goes Wild and People magazine's "Pet Vet" Dr. Evan Antin takes readers beyond his viral Instagram posts right into the wild world with him. World Wild Vet is an up close and personal look at planet earth, in all its wild glory. But beyond the laugh-out-loud stories and dangerous encounters with some of our planet's most exotic creatures, it is a clarion call to protect our delicate environment."-- Provided by publisher
Millions follow Antin and his wildlife adventures through social media, and in his popular Animal Planet television show Evan Goes Wild. Here he takes us to the deep blue seas swimming with forty foot whale sharks, to jungles filled with venomous snakes who are more afraid of you than you are of them, and a race across the savannah and against the clock to save rhinos from the clutches of poachers. Part memoir, travelogue, and conservation wake up call, he shares his exploration of the world we all call home-- and a love letter to the creatures we share it with. -- adapted from jacket
