Support the Nature Conservancy, the World Wildlife Fund, and other similar groups. These organizations do not seek to protect merely the large animals (or their genes). They protect the vast and complex ecosystems as well as the many forms of life within them. Friends, this is the best way to protect and preserve the future of diverse life on this planet.

oh,dear! Its important to have ancestors that were scientists,writers,explorers,inventors,painters,musicians,anthropologists,....otherwise we would still be in canoes going from point A to B!!!!
Everything our civilization is built on....from the minute to the great..
organizations...dance...books...outer space...immunizations,schools,universities...great art...every invention...cars...planes....canned goods...everything we take for granted...I guess George Bernard Shaw was right....[sorry...another Anglo!] Earth is a interplanatary lunatic asylum! Going down hill...

Speaking of extinct....and this is no joke,I see that people are interested in preserving a bird,frog...etc..but I have seen that most Anglos are all over 50 and everywhere I go,I see that we are like dinasours and becoming extinct and no one cares...what a waste...if we don't do someting instead of being so pc we can't continue to progress....maybe someday they will find our dna in a lab....
