Eric Wagner


Doctoral Candidate

I’m a graduate student who has studied, variously, ants, oysters, and penguins, all under the broad and blessedly generous rubrics of ecology and conservation biology. In a former life, I was an Englisheer who read a lot about environmental criticism, and so on. In my current life, I also do some science and nature writing.

Interests: 

With regard to Magellanic penguins, I’m interested in:
-What they think makes an egg an egg
-What they think makes a mate worth keeping
