He began filming Last Chance to See, a BBC-TV series about endangered species in January, which he is co-presenting with Stephen Fry – due to be broadcast in autumn 2009. He also presented the weekly half-hour programme, Nature, on BBC Radio 4 for many years (and has presented many other programmes and series for Radio 4).
He has written more than 50 books – including the best-selling field guide to whales, dolphins and porpoises ever published and his most recent title, Natural History Museum Animal Records – and wrote monthly columns in BBC Wildlife and Wanderlust magazines for many years (he is currently taking a break due to filming commitments).
Mark also has an extensive collection of wildlife, nature and environment photographs taken on all seven continents and in more than a hundred countries – sold through picture agencies around the world and through this website. He has been Chairman of the Judging Panel for the prestigious Wildlife Photographer of the Year Competition since 2005.
Mark also leads the occasional wildlife tour (keep an eye on this site for when these crop up). But the one trip he is completely addicted to is his annual pilgrimage to the best whale-watching destination in the world, Baja California.
