Giles has worked with Big Cats since leaving school. He started in his current position in December 2003, when Australia Zoo got their first tiger cubs. Originally working in zoos in England, Giles has also spent over two years working in a voluntary capacity in India, trying to make a contribution to help save the magnificent tiger in its natural habitat. Giles has a passion not only for tigers and their conservation in the wild, but also for educating people about the environment and what they can do to make a difference.
