He and his wife Lisa operate the Kingdom Zoo Wildlife Center® and Wild Wishes® programs which give wildlife encounters to children with a critical illness, in the foster system or who have lost a parent or sibling.

Their latest project is Higher Calling Wild Wishes Expeditions which takes teens from those programs into the forest and mountains to mentor them in using photography and video to raise awareness and funds for wildlife conservation.

Former Marine Sergeant Zachary Stinson was on his first deployment when he lost both of his legs above the knee and sustained severe damage to his hands in an improvised explosive device (IED) blast in Marjah, Afghanistan on Nov. 9, 2010.

Arriving at Bethesda Naval Medical Center six days after the blast, Zach remained there for three months. Transferred to Richmond Va., for 30 days, Sgt Stinson was next sent to Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C. where he spent more than a year before finally transferring to the newly renamed Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland. Zach has endured more than 25 surgeries, including the eventual amputation of his right leg above the knee.

He now competes in marathons & triathlons as a double amputee.

He also credits being introduced to hunting as a major part of his recovery and has now hunted all over the world.
