Tyler PoundsMy name is Tyler Pounds (formerly Tyler Broderick Walborn). I am an Ecological Anthropologist, Ethnobiologist, Integrated Biologist. Mr. Pounds has an M.A. in Anthropology (Ecological) from New Mexico State University with Graduate Minors in Fisherie, Wildlife, Conservation Ecology and Native American Studies. Mr. Pounds also holds a B.A. in American Indian/Native American Studies from Northeastern State University in Tahlequah, Oklahoma. Mr. Pounds is a National Science Foundation (NSF) summer scholar. Oddly enough, Mr. Pounds never graduated from high school. He holds a G.E.D. and wishes to be "a shining light" to people who come from disadvantaged backgrounds. He states, "it's never too late to fulfill your dreams in life, never giving up is of the utmost importance." Mr. Pounds has worked alongside many federal, state-level, and non-profit agencies for wildlife conservation and cultural heritage. This includes the Bureau of Land Management, American Conservation Experience-Epic (Forestry Service), Americorps, Southwest Conservation Corps, Ancestral Lands Conservation Corps, Save Our Bosque Task Force, and the Naraya Cultural Preservation Council (NCPC), most recently he worked for Oregon State University-Institute of Natural Resources. While working for these agencies, Tyler received first-hand experiences with wildlife management practices. Tyler combines the fields of Anthropology and Wildlife Biology (Botany, Ecology, and Zoology) into an "integrated approach" fit for the 21st century. Tyler enjoys addressing issues that are directly related to the "Anthropocene Epoch," while also bridging the gaps between humans and wildlife. Mr. Pounds is the creator of a new field of study known as "Integrated Human-Nature Relations". This new school of thought and field has been specifically designed for "biodiversity & conservation". Book #1 was reviewed by the famous E.O. Wilson at Harvard University on 3/6/2020 before he died. Read More Read Less
