Gary Oliver's relationship with animals began when he was seven. His passion expanded and working with animals became his lifelong goal. Fashion photography and Maynard -- a star feline performer -- led him to open Cinemazoo, Canada's first animal agency. Cinemazoo soon became a refuge and home to countless abandoned exotic animals. In 2007 he founded the Urban Safari Rescue Society as a non-profit organisation. Thousands of schools, public institutions, corporations and non-profit organisations have benefitted from his educational talks and hands-on demonstrations. His mission is to educate the public about the conservation and sustainability of wildlife.
