A wake-up call on saving endangered species - In order to help stabilize our planet's life support systems and improve our world, National Geographic photographer Joel Sartore says we must step up and solve environmental problems, even small ones, in our communities; by saving other species, we will be saving our own. (Air Date: Jan 5, 2020)
National Geographic photographer Joel Sartore's PHOTO ARK PROJECT is an astonishing photo archive of 16,000 species living in zoos. Tragically, a great number of these species are endangered. Each of these stunning portraits reveals the creatures as the remarkable, unique individuals they are. These animals are ambassadors for their species. Sartore hopes that his work will help save at risk species by building awareness and inspiring action.
"Our hope is that people will look these creatures in the eyes, and be inspired to care, while there is still time." Joel Sartore
About the 25 year Photo Ark documentary project - be sure to click on each animal photo for more information about the species.
Footage from episodes 1, 2 and 3 is available on the PBS website. "That’s what the Photo Ark really is about,” Sartore said in the series. “It’s hope that people will fall in love with these things, want to learn about what happened to the species, what they can do to save it and then realize that it ties directly back into their own lives.”
