About

Ferret Fred Productions was born out of a love of wildlife and the natural world by photographer and digital artist 'beth Hayes and environmental author and Master Wildlife Conservationist Roy DuVerger.

Roy is an accomplished outdoorsman, Master Wildlife Conservationist with formal education in Wildlife and Forestry Conservation and environmental author. As founder and president of Apalachee Ecological Conservancy, he was a key presenter at public talks and handled media interviews including radio and newspaper; developed strategies and presented information to local, state and federal elected officials regarding development issues; formed key alliances with other environmental organizations to challenge and bring about change in the area of coastal development; lobbied federal, state and county representatives on national and regional environmental issues.

At Ferret Fred Productions we strongly believe that photography and film can connect people and help them understand that we share this planet with so many beautiful and intelligent beings. That we are at the point where instead of humans being the problem humans need to become the solution by discovering ways that we can live in harmony with the natural environment and actually learn how to not destroy it in the process.
During these troubled times we would like to state that we are commited to protect and preserve the public lands that belong to us all throughout the Americas . . . to defend public lands from threats such as climate change and fossil fuel development . . . support equitable access to the outdoors for all people . . . protect wildlife and habitats to ensure healthy ecosystems for future generations . . . advocate for sustainable policies that safeguard clean air, water and the natural beauty of our hemisphere.
