Heard Joel speak a few weeks ago. He was great speaker. But I honestly thought the idea for this book was a little hoaky. After hearing him speak about the project and finding out that this is ultimately done to get people to see what they might not even know exist, it is a pretty great thing he is doing.

This is a book of beautiful photographs with an important message. Almost 2,000 species are endangered with some of the verge of going extinct. Many species have already disappeared forever. Joel Sartore photographed and wrote about several such species. He demonstrates how some endangered species such as the American alligator are thriving, with help. Other species, are gone forever, like the Columbia Basin Pygmy Rabbit, which became extinct in 2008.
The Endangered Species Act was passed by Congress and signed into law by President Nixon in 1973. Habitats have been saved to assist challenged species. This has forced us to often question: which is the more important, the needs of humans or the needs of nature?
Other laws have been passed to help both humans and nature, such as the Clean Water Act and creating the Fish and Wildlife Services as well as the National Marine Fisheries Service. Many helpful actions have been local ones, such as petitions that saved habitats from being destroyed.
Not all endangered species are large animals. Even bugs and all kinds of living things play important roles in ecosystems. There are about 1,011 species within the U.S. and its waters that are endangered with 301 listed as threatened. Habitats have been saved for 538 species. Recovery plans have been developed for 1,134 species. 49 species have recovered enough that they have been removed from these lists, yet nine were done so because they went extinct. 14 species were removed because their population numbers increased enough for re-designation. 16 were removed due to administrative reasons, such as discovered more in new counts.Read more ›

I got this for my little girl who loves animals. She loves it and so do I as I believe anyone would. I think its just a human nature thing. I recommend this to any child or animal lover.

Such a beautiful book. The images are gorgeous and I love having this on my coffee table to not only share this stunning photography but to also showcase the impact we have on the species we share this planet with.
