Experience the thrilling adventures in wildlife conservation from "the Indiana Jones of Biology" (Entrepreneur) in this action-packed and educational memoir filled with danger and intrigue. Very few individuals can truthfully say that their work impacts every person on earth. Forrest Galante is one of them. As a wildlife biologist and conservationist, Galante devotes his life to studying, rediscovering, and protecting our planet’s amazing lifeforms. Part memoir, part biological adventure, Still Alive celebrates the beauty and determined resiliency of our world, as well as the brave conservationists fighting to save it. In his debut book, Galante takes readers on an exhilarating journey to the most remote and dangerous corners of the world. He recounts miraculous rediscoveries of species that were thought to be extinct and invites readers into his wild life: from his upbringing amidst civil unrest in Zimbabwe to his many globetrotting adventures, including suspenseful run-ins with drug cartels, witch doctors, and vengeful government officials. He shares all of the life-threatening bites, fights, falls, and jungle illnesses. He also investigates the connection between wildlife mistreatment and human safety, particularly in relation to COVID-19. Still Alive is much more than just a can’t-put-down adventure story bursting with man-eating crocodiles, long-forgotten species rediscovered, and near-death experiences. It is an impassioned, informative, and undeniably inspiring examination of the importance of wildlife conservation today and how every individual can make a difference.

He no longer felt like a thirty-seven-year-old loser living with his mother and pretending to be a detective. He was a real detective. He'd solved one real mystery, and was convinced he was about to solve another. He might even catch a real killer. Low-rent "detective" Mike Levine lives at home with his mother, Estelle, who still calls him by the name she gave him-Mordecai. While working his first real mystery, Mike is helped by his sister, Rhonda, an overly enthusiastic reference librarian, and her sarcastic policeman husband, Ralph. Together, they form an unlikely comic team of amateur sleuths. Mike's obsession with obscure historical details-like the bridge in the background of the Mona Lisa-helps him investigate the mysterious disappearance of a bride on her wedding night. An incredible true story from 1760 about a de Launay family scandal proves to be the key to solving the modern-day mystery. And, along the way, Mike unlocks some of his own family secrets. When the mystery turns into murder, Mike's own life is in danger. His only goals now are to stay alive, solve the mystery, and turn his family into a team of real detectives.
