The threat of extinction is more real than many realise. And the damage done to elephants directly leads to destruction of the ecosystem.

The only way to save a rhinoceros is to save the environment in which it lives, because there's a mutual dependency between it and millions of other species of both animals and plants.

The Endangered Species Act is the strongest and most effective tool we have to repair the environmental harm that is causing a species to decline.

I feel that we have a responsibility to try to do everything we can to protect species, and the best way to do that is to uphold international conservation law.

I do think we're an endangered species. But that we do have a plan to save the rainforest.

There are 13 Asian countries that still have elephants, and Elephant Family is looking to invest in further projects that will be the most critical for saving elephants while there is still time.

Shelters, conservationists, those concerned about unnecessary cruelty toward the animals we eat, and people working against species extinction fight to preserve the true riches of our planet, our real inheritance. These are big, critical goals.

We all have a responsibility to protect endangered species, both for their sake and for the sake of our own future generations.

The most important thing is to preserve the world we live in. Unless people understand and learn about our world, habitats, and animals, they won't understand that if we don't protect those habitats, we'll eventually destroy ourselves.

Biodiversity can't be maintained by protecting a few species in a zoo, or by preserving greenbelts or national parks. To function properly, nature needs more room than that. It can maintain itself, however, without human expense, without zookeepers, park rangers, foresters or gene banks. All it needs is to be left alone.
