Evan Antin, DVM, is Instagram’s most-followed veterinarian with over 1.3 million followers. Antin went viral after being featured in People magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive issue in 2014, and again in 2016 and 2017. Dubbed the “sexiest veterinarian,” he took the internet by storm. In February 2019, Antin’s new television show, Evan Goes Wild, premiered on Animal Planet. In the show, viewers watch him chase his wildlife bucket list as he swims alongside humpback whales in Tahiti, explores caves with bats in the Philippines, and tangles with crocodiles in the Yucatan. Antin brings his passion and love for all wildlife to each adventure where, as a practicing veterinarian, he also lends a helping hand to animals in need along the way. 

His summer 2020 Facebook TV show Tusks To Tails with Seeker (under Group Nine) is dedicated to educating viewers about some of our planet’s most unique animals and what wild adaptations they have to contribute to their success. Seeker’s digital platform is all about bringing accurate, modern science to followers, subscribers, and viewers, and this show is no exception, delivering fascinating, fun, wild information while incorporating a variety of Antin’s experience with wildlife so far in his professional career. 

In 2018 he debuted Happy Pet, his pet wellness brand that is available online. The products use natural and eco-friendly ingredients and are available in 3 categories—clean, fresh, and active. He will be launching his first book, World Wild Vet, in October 2020 with his publisher Henry Holt (under Macmillan). This book covers Antin’s life from young wildlife/animal super enthusiast, all the way to his veterinary and wildlife conservation work around the world. He originally hails from Kansas City, Kansas, where he spent the majority of his childhood in search of native wildlife, including snakes, turtles, and insects. He went on to study evolutionary and ecological biology at the University of Colorado at Boulder and spent multiple semesters abroad in Australia and Tanzania to learn more about their respective ecosystems and fauna.

 In addition to his love for cats and dogs, Antin’s passions lie in exotic animal medicine and interacting with exotic animals in their native habitats around the world. For more than a decade he worked with wildlife in locations such as Central America, Australia, New Zealand, South America, Eastern and Southern Africa, Southeast Asia, and a variety of North American ecosystems
