First Earth's  Instructor

Bo Brown has been a professional wildlife field biologist since 1985, and is currently Associate Director with Ozark Center for Wildlife Research. He is also an instructor at several skills gatherings around the country:  (Rabbitstick - Idaho, Wintercount - Arizona, and Ernest Wilkinson's Skills Camp - Colorado.)

He started his path of learning ancient wilderness skills upon meeting tribal chief and medicine man Jim Fire Eagle in the mid-70's while playing music at Silver Dollar City, a theme park in Branson, MO. He has been a professional musician since 1973, and also works part-time on archaeological digs in the Ozarks area. He dedicates this school to the memory of his friend and mentor, Chief  Fire Eagle.
