- 59:26Nature’s Secret Service, S2 Ep04: Confidential InformantThis is your rare opportunity to hear from a real life confidential informant who worked for the US Fish and Wildlife Service. It's exceedingly rare to get an inside seat to the world of "CI's" but confidential informant "Pete Paxton" breaks the silence to give you a brief look behind the curtain. Recruited as an informant by Special Agent Newcomer, Paxton worked for the US Fish and Wildlife Service for a number of years and went on to provide information on other cases to NOAA National Marine Fisheries Law Enforcement. His work in animal cruelty investigations is legendary and his work on wildlife crimes led to changes in California fishing laws and practices. He is the co-author of the book entitled "Rescue Dogs: Where They Come From, Why They Act the Way They Do, and How to Love Them Well," which is available on Amazon or wherever books are sold. He is also a founder and director of the non-profit organization SEED - Strategies for Ethical and Environmental Development (https://www.ethicalstrategies.org/)
