Wild about Australia

Wild about Australia Dr. Martin Cohen created Wild about Australia as an innovative business that interprets and educates people from all walks of life about our natural world.

Despite tolerating tropical downpours that have completely soaked ever piece of camping kit owned, or having expensive camera gear saturated and ruined, or enduring terribly itchy rashes all over my body, or suffered with leeches in my eyeball, ears, lips and just about everywhere else, I don’t think that I have ever not enjoyed being immersed in the Wet Tropics. The Wet Tropics is a place of beau

ty and life. It completely enriches my soul and continually refreshes my motivation to pass on my passion for nature and all its beauty to anyone that will listen. The ashes of the love of my life, Julia Cooper, are spread in the tropical rainforest, and mine will someday join hers to become part of the never-ending circle of life. Dr. Martin Cohen

On the afternoon of this day (December 16) 9 years ago, doctors at Royal Brisbane Hospital informed me that my beautiful partner and soul mate, Julia Cooper, would not survive another 24 hours. The rare auto-immune disease (Secondary HLH), was all too consuming and she passed away in my arms the following morning (December 17).
Not a day has past since that I haven't missed her, thought of her and wished she had lived a full life beyond her 33 years. So, this 9 year anniversary post is not meant to bring us down, but to ensure that you make the most of each day and cherish with all your heart the ones you love.
I have posted a collection of photographic treasures of Julia including one of her in Borneo with her best friend Lucy, who I know is also missing her immensely, and one all dressed up with our dear friend in Bristol Martyn Harries.
I hope you enjoy seeing her gorgeous smile again as much as I do.

My good friend and fellow wildlife educator, Jodie Creek, did a PodCast with me. I hope you enjoy listening :).
