Bob Elliot
Born in North Yorkshire and raised exploring the Yorkshire Dales Bob is a naturalist and conservation professional who greatly enjoys leading groups and sharing his enthusiasm for the natural world. Time in the field provides a welcome counterbalance to his demanding professional role as CEO of Wild Justice, where he works with Chris Packham and Ruth Tingay to get a better deal for UK wildlife, challenge government decisions in the courts, campaign for better laws and policies and giving people opportunities to speak up for our wildlife.
Bob’s career began with two Head Warden posts on the Farne Islands before he moved to Scotland to join the National Trust for Scotland. There he served as a Countryside Ranger and later Countryside Manager for the Highlands and Islands, overseeing Ranger teams and the management of celebrated landscapes including Glencoe, Kintail, West Affric and Torridon, as well as islands such as Iona, Canna, Fair Isle and St Kilda.
Bob later managed the Ranger and Warden Service for Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park before joining the RSPB in 2007 as RSPB Head of Investigations and Species Protection where he led efforts to tackle wildlife crime in the UK and abroad.
Bob has led and worked on tours to Iceland, the Faroe Islands, Portugal, Ireland, Romania, Switzerland, Gambia, Madagascar, Antarctica and many of Scotland’s islands, including St Kilda and Fair Isle. He has also travelled more widely to Peru, and South Africa, contributing to projects such as vulture conservation in the Pyrenees, Bearded Vulture nest monitoring in France and Spain and Iberian Lynx work in Spain.
An expert on birds and mammals, birds of prey and seabirds, Bob also has extensive field experience using camera traps and remote surveillance techniques. Above all, he is passionate about helping others connect more deeply with wildlife and wild places.
