MISSION STATEMENT
“My mission as a nature photographer is to honor the inner nature, the spark of life that is present in all life forms. Our wildlife and natural habitats are in need of conservation for the benefit of future generations. We are all intimately interconnected in this delicate web of creation. With awareness and positive action, we can make a difference and preserve our precious planet”.
WILDLIFE & ENDANGERED SPECIES
Endangered Species Act
The Endangered Species Act, passed by Congress is to protect wild pristine areas and the animals that live within these natural habitats.
What Happens When An Endangered Specie Comes Off the List?
When an animal listed on the endangered specie list comes off due to increasing numbers, the animal can become quite vulnerable. Did you know that the Bald Eagle, once on the list is no longer an endangered specie? The numbers have increased and so have sightings. However pollution still exists and they are now vulnerable. Lately, these magnificent birds of prey have been preyed upon by humans in target practices for the mere fun of it.
