Dr. Zeb Hogan is a research biologist at the University of Nevada, Reno and the United Nations Convention on Migratory Species Scientific Councilor for Fish. He has a doctoral degree in ecology, was a visiting Fulbright scholar at the Environmental Risk Assessment Program at Thailand’s Chiang Mai University and has served as a World Wildlife Fund Senior Freshwater Fellow. Zeb also hosts the popular National Geographic Wild Television series “Monster Fish.” In this episode of Anchored, I sit down with Zeb to learn more about his studies, his show, and his fascinating experiences with gigantic aquatic species.

Zeb’s book Chasing Giants: In Search of the World’s Largest Freshwater Fish, co-written with award-winning journalist Stefan Lovgren, is available April 25 from University of Nevada Press.
