| Dr. Chris Campbell is the Veterinarian for ARRS. Growing up with a misconception and ignorant fear concerning reptiles, primarily snakes. Gradually he learned to deny what the media taught about these mysterious creatures and relied on what he learned from experts in the field. However it was not until his years at Auburn where his education and newfound respect for these animals flourished. He was surrounded by so many great and knowledgeable men and women who devoted their lives to the study and conservation of reptiles and amphibians. Their passion was contagious and Chris tried to soak up as much knowledge as he could while helping with various odd jobs in reptile research and conservation. While he was in vet school he found that he could use this passion to fill a much needed and often overlooked niche as a reptile/amphibian veterinarian. After graduating from Auburn and moving back to Birmingham he again has found himself surrounded by a passionate and knowledgeable group of reptile enthusiasts. " I feel lucky that throughout my career, i have been able to surround myself by so many bright and gifted people. I learn better this way. And when it comes to reptiles and amphibians there is something to learn every day." |
