Before she was known as The Jungle Doctor, travelling the world as a wildlife vet, dehorning rhinos in South Africa and fitting elephants with prosthetics, Dr Chloe Buiting was a barefoot kid in the bush on Lord Howe Island. That tiny island sparked her lifelong fascination with the natural world and taught her what it means to belong...to live close to nature and be shaped by it. Today, Chloe is a conservationist and mother of two on Kangaroo Island, splitting her year between global work with Fauna & Flora International and the Earthshot Prize, and hands-on fieldwork across Africa and Asia. She’s dined with David Attenborough, darted rhinos from helicopters, and is raising her children between continents.
Behind the adventure is a story about belonging — building a home while constantly on the move, finding community across the world, and reconciling motherhood with a calling that takes her to the wildest corners of the planet.
This is Dr Chloe Buiting’s remarkable story.
