Today we are faced with the alarming possibility that as
many as 50 percent of species alive will become extinct
within this century. This statistic is so staggering that
scientists have begun to refer to the twenty-first
century as the “sixth extinction.” But while this is
alarming, all hope is not lost; conservation experts
across the globe are working tirelessly to preserve our
planet for future generations. In Wild Lives, twenty of these pioneers share their
stories via exclusive interviews. Coming from different
countries, diverse cultures, a variety of socio-economic
backgrounds, and specializing in different species, all
of these conservationists have an important
characteristic in common: they have committed their lives
to saving our planet and the majestic species that call
it home. Some of these esteemed contributors include: Today we are faced with the staggering possibility that
