HISTORY
He began his lifelong ambition at the mere age of 13, with his first show for a local library in Kanata Ontario, his hometown.
The world-renowned herpetologist, Dr. Francis Cook of Ottawa’s Museum of Natural Sciences, mentored Jeff’s love for reptiles and amphibians. Jeff acted as Director of Education at a CAZA accredited facility, and as an in-field researcher in Central America where he visits once a year through the winter. These visits also offer him further insight and updated video footage to bring back home and to share his new experiences with his audiences, through his exciting and interactive show.
Safari Jeff has published a series of popular children’s adventure books, which include incredible artwork. These colorful and educational books have been sold across the country and into the US. Jeff is an avid nature videographer and has captured a plethora of footage from his annual visits to South America and has utilized his film by incorporating clips in his live show as well as producing his own popular Nature DVD.
Jeff has been on numerous media outlets from throughout the country appearing numerous times on: YTV, Canada AM, City TV, CTV, Shaw, Global, Live Eye, The Pet Guys, Biography Channel, Good Morning Canada, most local Breakfast Shows, Maclean’s Magazine, Magazine Not for Adults, Zamoof Magazine and others.
“Tilley Endurables” continues to sponsor Safari Jeff and is currently working together as well he is about to sign (in early 2016 with a massive national sponsor).
You can find Jeff at a variety of fundraising events offering as much as he can to lend support to the organization offering free live shows for many who seek him in person, bringing smiles to those of all ages.
Safari Jeff’s live show would be the ideal program for every theme park, mall, theatre, campus, fair, festival, zoo, science center as he would provide a huge entertainment value to a vast demographic of visitors.
“The fate of most of these amazing creatures lies in our hands and the secret lies in education” Safari Jeff.
Safari Jeff carries all his own equipment he does not need anything. Custom caters to your needs from small - large events.
This event can be custom catered to your needs example: His regular larger events consist of him and his multi media displays on an exploration with live reptiles and videos of his team talking to him from a rainforest. This event lasts just under 30min then he brings out each creature one at a time for a closer encounter to the audience walking through the crowd. That can last another 30-45 min. Upon completion crowds tend to stick around asking questions about his adventures, asking for autographs and selfies etc.
Safari Jeff has had many influences in his early ventures into zoology as stated in his bio.
If this is a private small event whatever footprint you offer him to perform in he will do so. As for larger events of over 100 people in order for them to see him better we will need a stage (size depends on space allocated and size of crowd).
