Steve Braine

Steve Braine has been an avid naturalist from a very young age and has contributed invaluable data on Namibia’s natural history. During the past 40 years, he has ringed countless birds and has contributed several articles on distribution and other aspects of ornithology in popular journals and magazines. He has discovered several new butterfly species including Braine's Acraea, Braine's Zulu, Braine's Straight-line Sapphire, Mimosa Sapphire, Braine's Charaxes and Silvery Copper. 

Steve spent 9 years in the Skeleton Coast Park, and two years in the eastern Caprivi Strip as a ranger/conservation official. From there, together with his family, he moved to Hobatere Lodge, a wildlife concession area on the western border of Etosha National Park. Here they operated a very successful wildlife lodge for 21 years.  

Since then, he has guided many specialized tours throughout Namibia, Angola, Ghana, Uganda and Madagascar.
