Md. Sabbir Ahammed is an enthusiastic post-graduate student with an unwavering passion for wildlife conservation and a specific focus on herpetofauna research. He was born and raised in a small village surrounded by nature, where he developed a deep connection with the environment from a young age. His fascination with reptiles and amphibians began early in childhood, fostering a lifelong passion for these often misunderstood creatures, which led him to pursue a degree in Zoology at the Jagannath University, Dhaka 1100, Bangladesh.
Sabbir has actively shaped his academic journey to specialize in herpetofauna research. Eager to contribute to the understanding and conservation of reptiles and amphibians, he is engaged in various research projects related to his chosen field. His determination led him to work alongside esteemed herpetologists, studying the behavior, ecology, and conservation needs of diverse amphibian and reptile species. As a result, he completed both of his undergraduate term papers on herpetofauna.
Sabbir's commitment to wildlife conservation extends beyond the classroom and laboratory. Driven by a sense of responsibility for the Earth's ecosystems, Sabbir became involved in various campus organizations dedicated to environmental causes, including the Nature Study and Conservation Club (NSCC), Department of Zoology, Jagannath University. He plays a key role in organizing awareness campaigns, seminars, and educational workshops to inspire his peers to participate actively in conservation efforts. By fostering a sense of understanding and appreciation, he strives to bridge the gap between humans and these essential components of ecosystems.
Apart from working on various research projects on different wildlife as a volunteer and research assistant, he is a grantee of The Explorers Club (awarded the Rising Explorer Club grant in 2023 and 2024). Currently, he is the principal investigator of a project focused on lizard diversity and their conservation.
Driven by a desire to share his knowledge, Sabbir actively maintains a social media presence dedicated to herpetofauna and other wildlife conservation. His engaging content not only educates the public but also inspires others to join the cause and protect biodiversity.
As he advances in his undergraduate studies, his goal is to contribute meaningful research that informs conservation strategies for herpetofauna. With a keen eye for detail and a passion for preserving biodiversity, he envisions a future where reptiles and amphibians are respected and actively safeguarded for upcoming generations.

I am an Ecologist with experience in Environmental Biology. I work with the National Center for Genetic Resources and Biotechnology (NACGRAB) based in Nigeria. I am passionate about environmental pollution assessment and evaluation, especially concerning land, water, and living organisms. At NACGRAB, I have been given the responsibility of using Tissue Culture Methods to conserve the economic and endangered plant biodiversity of Nigeria. I appreciate teaming up with people in my field of expertise to carry out research and environmental activities that will help save the future. Thanks
I'm Phydias Senan Agossou, PhD student at the Institute of Geography of the University of Bern in Switzerland. I had a Bachelor and a Master degree, both in management of natural resources in my home country, Benin. Actually my PhD is focused on landscape connectivity in agricultural landscape of Benin. As it involve a good numbers of field related to ecology conservation, GIS, Species Distribution Modelling, this community is the best to help me aware about what is been doing in the scientist world. My expectation joining this Hub is then to gain knowledge from other from one hand and to share my experience with them through my ongoing PhD thesis and to build a solid scientists network necessary for my career from another hand.
A dynamic and detail-oriented individual with a passion for understanding service delivery, eager to contribute my knowledge and skills to dynamic conservation projects, I am seeking opportunities to collaborate with likeminded professionals and organizations dedicated to safeguarding our planet's biodiversity.
I am the CEO of based UK startup ioLight. We make the only pocket microscope that can capture and share images of cells from the screen of your mobile phone.
I joined WildHub because conservationists globally find that a microscope that can travel anywhere that they can is now an essential part of their gear. The microscope allows you to make instant decisions in the field. It has been used in The Arctic, The Amazon, The Antarctic, and Mount Everest. Most of our microscopes are exported, with 50% sold in the USA.
We hope to connect with field ecologists, particularly those interested in citizen science. We can help you collect large volumes of rich data quickly and inexpensively.
We are looking forward to learning how you want to view microscopic subjects and to help make your field work faster and simpler.
I look forward to meeting you.

I am Arefine. I am an anchor & reciter. In between my studies in zoology, I am involved in extra curricular activities. I focus on field studies since my undergraduate studies. Field study alone and observing became my addiction. Photography was also added to this addiction. Although watching nature, observing animals is my passion, the thought of working on a specific subject did not come to my mind. After that, I started working at the marginal level with snakebite patients during the Corona period. Then I chose calligraphy as a means of awareness to reach people quickly. Although I did not give priority to online then, I later built my organization called Kundali Foundation. Under the banner of this organization, i started the work of conveying the message of awareness to people called 'Be Aware Of Snake'. I was able to deliver my message to 495 upazilas of Bangladesh. The war is still going on because the fear of snakes has not died down among people.
Nancy Joan is a Kenyan conservationist fascinated by landscape connectivity and wider ecosystem biodiversity conservation. Nancy was born in Nanyuki, Laikipia County, and partly grew up in the Ol Pejeta Conservancy, where her passion for biodiversity conservation developed and flourished. Nancy is currently completing a Bachelor of Science in Wildlife Management and Conservation at the University of Nairobi and has done several conservation work placements at Ol Pejeta Conservancy and 51degrees, based at Lewa wildlife conservancy. Nancy is driven by the challenges she sees in the areas where she grew up, including landscape fragmentation, human-wildlife conflict, and habitat loss. She believes that the solution lies in better connecting people with nature and their own surrounding habitats. I love telling stories about nature and wildlife through photography.
