This is undoubtedly [a reference to Pete Devine](https://www.nationalgeographic.com/expeditions/experts/pete-devine/), the award-winning principal naturalist for the Yosemite Conservancy at the Yosemite National Park. His work on environmenal causes and environmental education is renowned, something that the likes of Urbanredneck would certainly appreciate, being himself a staunch advocate of environmentalism and all forms of higher education.
