"Mr. Hilker describes himself as aviation entrepreneur, geologist, farmer, conservationist, railroad buff, and collector of cannons and tall stories." [1]

"Based in Ohio, Carl and his wife Cathryn (a leading public education expert on endangered cats, and a professional animal trainer), are life-long conservationists. Carl describes himself as aviation entrepreneur, geologist, farmer, conservationist, railroad buff, and collector of cannons and tall stories. Carl and Cathryn, along with some other “cheetah believers,” purchased the farm which became the Cheetah Conservation Fund Research and Education Center in Namibia. Carl also owns his own farm in Namibia, and helps coordinate WILD’s field programs that involve purchase, maintenance and deployment of anti-poaching and wildlife survey aircraft." [2]
