He began serious photography at the age of 17, went on to study zoology and, in the fall of 2000, obtained a Ph.D. from the University of Aberdeen (Scotland). After completing his studies, Unterthiner returned to Italy and began his career as a zoologist. But his camera was always at his side, and it was not long before his hobby turned into an all-consuming lifestyle and profession. Unterthiner now travels regularly around the world in search of new subjects for his photo story. He specializes in telling the life stories of animals, living in close contact with his chosen species for long periods. He also has a strong commitment to wildlife conservation and environmental issues, with a particular interest in the interactions between people and animals. Widely published in magazines worldwide, he is the author of eight photography books and a\u00a0multi-award winner in the <em>Wildlife Photographer of the Year<\/em> competition. Stefano is a regular contributing photographer for <em>National Geographic<\/em> magazine. He lives with his wife St\u00e9phanie in the Aosta Valley.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.stefanounterthiner.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.stefanounterthiner.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h1>St\u00e9phanie Fran\u00e7oise<\/h1>\n<p class=\"rtejustify\">Born in Caen (France) in 1983, St\u00e9phanie Fran\u00e7oise always had a great interest in nature.
