The article above shows that 70% of the remaining wild lands in the world are contained in just five countries. Those of us who live in any of those five countries need to take action in any way we can to help protect those remaining wild lands. Life depends on it.
The Center for Large Landscape Conservation, the Yellowstone to Yukon Conservation Initiative, Wildlands Network, and the Half Earth Project are just a handful of organizations working to preserve what is left of the wonderful planet. Please consider supporting any organizaiton you find in your country that is working to support conservation of wildlands.

Very nice post and how strange it is that a Native American “quote/proverb” from the late 1800’s still rings so true over a century later. Will humanity learn before or after we have destroyed most of the other life on the planet?
