About Me
My name is Kyle Burton, and I am a dedicated wildlife conservationist. I have focused my career on studying and protecting animals and their habitats. I strive to ignite that same curiosity about the natural world in others through photography and environmental education. I believe knowledge creates a foundation for compassion, which leads to action. In my free time, I enjoy hiking, camping, and reading; all to continue my own education about the world around us. I am currently a Master's student at Oregon Tech studying the nesting ecology of American Goshawks in southern Oregon.Field Work
