The ARF is delighted to welcome the former Federal member for the Far North Queensland electorate of Leichhardt, Mr Warren Entsch to its board.

Described as 'a handy man with snakes, crocodiles and other wild creatures.' Warren was first elected to Parliament in 1996, and was returned at three subsequent elections.

Warren was Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister for Industry, Science and Resources 1998-2001 and was Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister for Industry, Tourism and Resources from 2001 to 2006. In 2007 he retired from Federal Parliament to spend more time with his family.

Warren’s deep passion for wildlife and conservation has been evident with his avid support of the ARF since its inception, securing significant Federal funding over the years. Warren brings invaluable experience to the ARF board.
