Through his expeditions and encounters with some of the world’s most dangerous, cuddly, and misunderstood animals, Coyote has gained international recognition as a leading personality in wildlife entertainment. Whether he is diving into the water to catch a giant snapping turtle, or putting himself up against the sting of a bullet ant, Coyote aspires to educate and entertain above all else.  

Based out of Columbus, Ohio, Wilderness Productions is comprised of show host Coyote Peterson and his fearless crew. From adventures in the field filming with wild animals, to long hours in post-production, they are dedicated to making animal conservation and education entertaining for the next generation of explorers. Through the Brave Wilderness channel, their goal is to promote a genuine compassion and welfare for the natural world through the curiosity it provokes.
