Dr. Steven Janssen

Wild Parrot Rescue Coordinator

Steven grew up in the Belgian countryside and he was drawn to the beauty and diversity of nature from a very young age. He finished his veterinary studies at Ghent University after which he specialised in wild animal health at the RVC in London.

He has participated in research projects and worked in zoos and rehabilitation centres across the globe before venturing out to the African continent. The exposure to different species in different ecosystems under very diverse circumstances has shaped his versatile and pragmatic approach to conservation. This practical experience and his veterinary background are being put to good use as parrot rescue coordinator for the African continent.
