Samuel Mauldin Chambliss was a successful lawyer in Ridgefield. Some even describe him as one of the first attorneys in Connecticut to focus on environmental law as a practice area. In the early 1970s, he helped write legislation that created the local Inland Wetland Boards that now function statewide.
But when he died in early May, those achievements weren’t the most interesting part of his obituary. Instead, it was his decision to abandon his legal career for the wide-open savanna of Africa, buy a large ranch, and devote nearly two decades to conserving habitats for rhinos and other species.
