Hope for the future of our planet

Renowned scientist Jane Goodall brings good news to listeners. She and Thane Maynard, Gail Hudson shares the stories of heroes of the animal world, people who have contributed to the revival of endangered species. The book is divided into three sections. The authors share the recovery of six mammal and bird species that became vanished in the wild but are being reintroduced to their natural environment, the heroic labors to bring species back from near extermination, and the efforts to protect animals whose food supply is disappearing.

I enjoyed this audio book. It offers hope for the future of our planet. Losing a species is devastating to our planet. My one criticism was the repeated urging to go to Goodall's website. Once or twice would have been enough.

Inspiring

I am very passionate about environmental protection and conservation, and this book was both inspiring and educational. I have nothing but admiration for all these scientists who recognized the need to save certain species and tiredly acted to pull them back from the brink of extinction. These people were already on task as early as 1970s, way before the environmental issues were highlighted in the media. The book also gives us hope that not all is lost and little changes by us individuals can and do make a difference in the world.
