Discover the incredible diversity of wildlife that calls Long Island home! From the creatures of the land to the birds soaring above and the marine life beneath the waves, explore the rich and fascinating natural wonders that make Long Island a true wildlife haven.

About The Fish Guy, Chris Paparo

He is a wildlife photographer, writer, and lecturer who enjoys bringing public awareness to the diverse wildlife that call the island home.
