Rob Mileto

Rob Mileto has travelled extensively in Eastern and Southern Africa since his mid-20s, and has led wildlife tours to many destinations, there and elsewhere, for the past 35 years.

As a boy, Rob would spend many a Saturday afternoon in Redditch library, marvelling over the weird and wonderful creatures in Grzimek's Animal Life Encyclopaedia. This may be why he turned down the chance of studying to become a vet, to study ecology instead.

Having gone on to work for the Shropshire Wildlife Trust, RSPB and the warden of Aride Island in Seychelles, he now runs his own ecological consultancy.
