Todd Feeney

Todd started his career as a genomist. But his early efforts to map the genetic structures of ring-tailed lemurs endemic to the island of Madagascar frustrated him. After ten years of research, he finally threw his hands in the air and said, “What the crap am I doing down here at the butt end of the world?” After losing hope in his purpose, a series of unfortunate occurrences led him to the seedier areas of Eastern Europe. For a period of time, he made a living by illegally trafficking circus performers. When a band of trapeze vigilantes who called themselves the Flying Monguls exposed his crimes to the World Alliance of Justice for Abused Circus Performers--better known as WAJACP--authorities slapped the cuffs on him and threw him into prison, where he learned to whistle. After a long rally and protest by organizations sympathetic to Todd’s cause, he was finally set free.
