Acerca del autor

Ernest Thompson Seton (1860-1946) was a pioneering naturalist, author, and one of the founding figures of the Boy Scouts of America. Born in South Shields, England, and raised in Canada, Seton's early fascination with wildlife and the natural world profoundly influenced his life and work. He is best remembered for his vivid and empathetic portrayals of animals, which combined scientific observation with narrative storytelling, a revolutionary approach at the time.Seton's literary contributions include numerous short stories and books that brought the lives of animals into the hearts and minds of readers, fostering a deeper appreciation for wildlife conservation. His works often highlighted the intelligence and emotional depth of animals, challenging the prevailing views of his era and paving the way for modern environmental literature.Seton's influence extended beyond his writing. As a co-founder of the Boy Scouts of America, he played a crucial role in shaping the organization's emphasis on outdoor skills, nature study, and conservation. His advocacy for wildlife preservation and ethical treatment of animals resonated with contemporary writers and environmentalists, inspiring figures such as Jack London and Rachel Carson.Not without controversy, Seton's life was marked by disputes over his contributions to the Boy Scouts and his sometimes contentious relationship with other naturalists. Nevertheless, his legacy as a trailblazer in wildlife literature and conservation remains influential, continuing to inspire new generations to appreciate and protect the natural world.
