Laura Zerra spent her childhood exploring abandoned coyote dens, stalking deer,and crawling through swamps in whatever ”wild” lands she could find. In 2004, Laura obtained an internship with the Buffalo Field Campaign in West Yellowstone, Montana. Here she documented the slaughter of the last wild herd of bison. In 2013, Laura spent 21 days in full survival in Bocas del Toro, Panama, on the Discovery show Naked and Afraid. Laura was asked to return to complete another 21-day challenge in the Peruvian Amazon, and again to complete 40 days in the Colombian savanna in Season 1 of Naked and Afraid XL.
