I hate to say it, but the first thing that came to my mind when I read this?

Humans. The planet would be a far better, greener place without us. Goes without saying my blog stats would drop dramatically, but it’s a small price to pay.

On a lighter note, there’s one simple answer for me.

Kale. The sooner we rid the world of this noxious weed the better…

.

.

No kale crackers, no kale chips and for the love of all that’s holy… no kale ice cream.

How about you? What do you want to banish from earth….

Have you heard of Joel Sartore?

.

.

Arctic Fox.

If not, let me rectify that.

.

.

.

Tiger Striped Tree Frog.

Joel has made it his mission in life to photograph the approximately 12,000 species living in zoos and wildlife sanctuaries.

.

.

Brown Throated Sloth.

But Joel’s photographs are different.

.

.

Springbok Mantis.

They’re special.

.

.

Mandrill.

Because they’re portraits.

.

.

Spectacled Eiders.

Stunning portraits of glorious diversity.

.

.

California Sea Lion.

Joel believes if we see these marvelous creatures… we’ll feel something.

.

.

Andean Condor.

We’ll care.

.

.

Sumatran Rhinoceros.

And if we care, we’ll fight to preserve not only them, but the habitats they need to thrive.

.

.

DeBrazza’s Monkey.

Joel is my hero. And I’ve bought all 3 of his incredible books.

.

.

As I make my way through them, I’m going to share some of his work.

Because they make me feel.

Because they make me care.

Not all of the animals are beautiful.

.

.

Common Warthog.

But all of them are perfect… and worth protecting.
