This exciting new eTiM series features Rabbi Natan Slifkin, "The Zoo Rabbi."
"Combine an amateur zoologist and naturalist, a talmid chacham, and a gifted writer, and you get Rabbi Nosson Slifkin... Rabbi Slifkin is an all-around Renaissance man and his activities and achievements at such a young age are dizzying." Milk and Honey, Winter 2002
"Rabbi Slifkin has made a career of reconciling Jewish Scripture with modern natural history... With nine books to his name at age 29, he is a young up-and-comer in the sober world of Jewish scholarship." - The New York Times, March 2005
"Rabbi Natan Slifkin... popularly known as the "Zoo Rabbi" because of his consuming fascination with the animal kingdom and his Steve Irwin-esque pedagogical style... has emerged as a central figure in the ultra-Orthodox struggle to define the proper place of science within Judaism." - The Wall Street Journal, June 2007
