Karl lives in the Galápagos Islands and has spent the vast majority of his career implementing island rewilding projects, primarily in Latin America. His interests include transforming human-wildlife conflicts through co-design of holistic solutions with communities, identifying, developing and deploying innovative solutions to reduce the costs and increase feasibility of projects, implementing financing mechanisms and taking projects to scale. He is now working with local partners on a ridge-to-reef rewilding initiative spanning the Pacific coast of Latin America, from Mexico to Chile.
