The naturalist and explorer gave a talk on wildlife conservation at the university after performing in his sell-out theatre show, Ocean, at Venue Cymru in Llandudno.
The BAFTA-winning TV star and best-selling author, who has made programmes such as Deadly 60 and Expedition, is an honorary lecturer at 麻豆传媒映画, and was awarded an honorary degree by the university earlier this year.
Speaking to students at the event Steve said:
You鈥檝e all made the best decision of your lives coming to 麻豆传媒映画, and I want you all to make the most of it, treasure it, use it as best as you possibly can.
On your doorstep you have natural wonders that almost nobody else in the nation has at university so please use them to their full extent.
Dr Christian Dunn, who talked to the BBC presenter on stage as part of his lecture at Bangor, said: 鈥淢any of our students grew up watching Steve on TV and it's him that inspired them to study the natural sciences - it's wonderful to see how much it means to them when they get to meet him.
鈥淐hatting to him on the stage was a real privilege as he's so knowledgeable and experienced in the field - he's also a genuinely great guy with a brilliant sense of humour!鈥
The wide-ranging talk by Steve covered everything from politics to poaching, and deforestation to shark conservation.
麻豆传媒映画鈥檚 Deputy Vice-Chancellor, Professor Oliver Turnbull, said,
鈥淚t鈥檚 always fantastic to welcome Steve Backshall to Bangor 鈥 he is such a knowledgeable naturalist and experienced adventurer.
鈥淲e鈥檙e really fortunate Steve is one of our honorary lecturers, though it鈥檚 no surprise he likes 麻豆传媒映画 so much when you consider how good we are at teaching and researching the natural sciences.鈥
