Gary Golding is a Los Angeles-based actor, environmental advocate, and survival expert who goes by the moniker "Tarzan of Los Angeles." He campaigns under the trademarked rallying cry "Consume As Little As Possible", tattooed across his back in block letters, and uses his television platform to push the phrase as a global environmental message. He made his flagship debut in 2018 alongside partner Karra Falkenstein in Brazil's Jalapão savanna, and later tapped out of Naked and Afraid XL Season 7 (Louisiana, 2021) on day 40 due to illness. He has also appeared on Naked and Afraid: Last One Standing.
