This Week On 'Beyond The Edge' Radio: Pat Spain - Wildlife Biologist & Adventurer / Host of 'Beast Hunter'

Pat's wildlife expertise spans from caring for exotic reptiles at N.E.R.D. - a major reptile education, rehabilitation, and distribution center to teaching students about marine life at the New England Aquarium and Suffolk University. But his passion for wildlife started at a very young age. In grade school, he caught a cottonmouth snake in upstate NY, which was nearly 600 miles North of its accepted habitat. As a teenager, he led a population assessment on fish at an estuary on Laudholm Farms National Estuarine Research Reserve. Here, he caught and identified the first barracuda found off the coast of Maine.

In 2005, Spain created a nature Web show titled “Nature Calls” and chronicled his and some of his best friends “ridiculous adventures to find, film and interact with wild animals all over the planet.” His exploits for the program ranged from examining scorpions and black widows in the Arizona desert to wolves in New England and sloths in Costa Rica.

As a student at Suffolk University, Spain was selected to participate in the National Science Foundation's Research Experience for Undergrads program. His 12-week research on the mortality rate of baby oysters led to a technique which has helped the release of millions of live oysters into the bay each year. He later graduated Cum Laude from Suffolk with a bachelor of science in biology.

Spain’s great-uncle, Charles Fort, was a paranormal pioneer in the early 20th century who investigated strange reports from around the world. Today, the term "Fortean" has become synonymous with anomalous phenomena.
