Originally from Warrington, Aneeshwar Kunchala goes to St. Philip Westbrook CE Primary School. He was 4 years old when his teacher showed him a picture of a whale who died because of plastic pollution. Since then, the young child has been on a mission to create awareness for wildlife preservation using his own art, poems, and documentaries.

He has also made nests in his garden to save birds. In 2020, Kunchala made his first wildlife documentary, titled Regee The Robin, and won the Lockdown Hero 2021 award a year after its release. He has also been featured on BBC North West for being the country's 'Youngest Conservationist.'

Aneeshwar Kunchala met his hero and wildlife naturalist Steve Backshall via BBC Breakfast in March 2021. Other than that, he has also won the Art and Poetry Competition on World Curlew Day, Environmental Hero 2021 award, Scientific Exploration Society Honorary Award, Primary School Pupil of the Year Award, Blue Peter Gold Badge, and many others.

Currently, the young conservationist is the ambassador for the “All About Soil” initiative. In his audition for Britain's Got Talent, Kunchala recited his own poem about climate change and showed the many drawings of his classmates. He received all four nods for his performance. Later on, the young poet spoke on similar issues like the extinction of different species from Earth in the semi-finals and the finale.

He came seventh in the competitive series, which involved 40 semi-finalist performances and 11 final ones.

The young naturalist has also been honored with the Guinness Book of World Records for being the Youngest Documentary Presenter. He guest co-hosted for the BBC Blue Peter, was the lead presenter for the COP27 documentry, and a key note giver at the Childrens Media Conference.
