MEET THE WIGNALLS
With more than 20 years of individual experience working with aquariums, zoos, and
museums, Brian and Julie have a wealth of knowledge to share. Adding their daughter, Amelia,
to their team provides a unique dynamic for exploring nature!

Amelia is interested in just about everything! She loves meeting people of all ages from around the world, learning about other cultures, and everything about science.

Her favorite hobbies are learning about paleontology, acting, drawing, and making others laugh.

Amelia hopes to one day solve the mysteries of the Loch Ness Monster and Big foot.

Emmy Award winning Brian Wignall has used his knowledge of animals and their habitats as a producer for the Vegas PBS series Outdoor Nevada and Southwest Adventures. Now he's bringing his expertise to Wonders of the West.

Brian has spent more than 20 years creating naturalistic exhibits for zoos, aquariums, and museums around the world and has illustrated numerous books on nature.

From her work at The National Aquarium in Washington, DC to providing research for Jacques Cousteau to the creation and operation of The Mirage Dolphin Habitat and Secret Garden of Siegfried & Roy where she served as Director for 13 years, Julie has earned a reputation for her knowledge and creativity in educating the public about nature.

Julie was named "Conservation Educator of the Year" by the Nevada Wildlife Federation.
