Taylor Edwards

Delve into the biodiversity of Costa Rica with conservation biologist Taylor Edwards, who is working on the National Geographic Genographic Project. Taylor has also worked in the Department of Mammalogy and Ornithology at the Arizona–Sonora Desert Museum, a world-renowned natural history museum dedicated to conservation. He says that he wishes he was raised by wolves, but believes a career as a biologist is the next best thing. Taylor will join the July 10 departure of the Costa Rica field workshop on the northwest coast and the July 23 departure in Monteverde.
