Koulang Chey is a turtle researcher and wildlife biologist from Cambodia. He graduated from the Royal University of Phnom Penh Cambodia in 2004. Right away he began a Master’s degree working with a committee of international educators as his graduate committee.

Koulang has spent several months, at about 20 days at a time, in the Cardamom Mountains of Cambodia studying the natural history of the Impressed Tortoise, Manouria impressa.

Koulang will likely seek a Doctoral degree sometime in 2009 when his M.S. is then completed.
