John Neville Hare (born 11 December 1934)[1] is a British explorer, author, and conservationist, known for campaigning for preservation of the wild Bactrian camel.[2] His interest in wildlife conservation began when he served in the north of colonial Nigeria, first as an army officer assigned to the Royal West African Frontier Force and later in the Colonial Service.[1] In 2004 he was awarded the Ness Award of the Royal Geographical Society for raising public awareness and conservation of endangered wild camels in Mongolia and China. He is also author of the Hodder African Readers' The Fearless Four series of children's books, under the pseudonym Dan Fulani.
