Brendan Delehanty joined the Veterinarians Without Borders North America/Vétérinaires Sans Frontières Amérique du Nord Board in 2019. He has a Master's degree in zoology from the University of British Columbia and a PhD in ecology and evolutionary biology from the University of Toronto. Brendan has worked as a wildlife biologist in Yukon, British Columbia, and Saskatchewan, and has done fieldwork in Alberta and Manitoba, as well.
He also earned a law degree and practised as a lawyer in Saskatchewan for 7 years before moving to Guelph, Ontario where he is a stay-at-home parent who still occasionally dabbles in ecological contract work. Brendan is enthusiastic about his role in VWB/VSF, and considers his interests in indigenous/northern communities and international work to be a good fit with the organization
