Caitlan Osborn

Caitlan Osborn is a writer at A-Z Animals primarily covering creepy crawlies, weird wildlife, and peculiar plants in the United States and beyond. Caitlan has more than 10 years of professional writing and editing experience in journalism and corporate communications. She earned her Master of Arts degree in Mass Communications from Texas Tech University in 2015. After living in the desert plains of West Texas for most of her life, Caitlan relocated to Austin. She spends her spare time wandering through the city's many wilderness preserves and finding new ways to turn her yard into a thriving ecosystem for native plants and animals. Caitlan loves bats and is such a fan of the famed colony under Congress Avenue Bridge that she has a long series of them tattooed along her left leg.
