This Earth Day is a critical reminder of the urgent need to protect all of our species around the world. The Earth Day Network reminds us that “Nature’s gifts to our planet are the millions of species that we know and love, and many more that remain to be discovered. Unfortunately, human beings have irrevocably upset the balance of nature and, as a result, the world is facing the greatest rate of extinction since we lost the dinosaurs more than 60 million years ago.” The global destruction and rapid reduction of wildlife species are directly linked to human activity including poaching, climate change, and deforestation.

The impact is far-reaching and has deep and lasting effects on wildlife. But, Above Safaris believes that each of us can play an important role in changing the future of wildlife around the world. This Earth Day, and every day, we are excited to unite with organizations protecting wildlife in their local and global communities, and provide a way we can all help to protect our species.
