Wataru HIMENOのアバター Wataru HIMENO

Wataru HIMENO, born on August 8, 1995.
From a young age, I was passionate about insect collecting, with a particular fascination for the impressive Japanese glass lizard, which sparked my love for reptiles and amphibians. After graduating from university, he volunteered in Ecuador, where he encountered the term "herping." Upon returning to Japan, I worked at a travel agency, promoting herping and started a blog called WildHerping. After leaving the travel agency, he founded WildHerping & Co. to promote environmental conservation and has since been dedicated to the protection of nature and wildlife.
