I Love Animals and Nature

The saddest thing I've seen in my lifetime is so many animals becoming endangered. From Monarch butterflies to Bengal Tigers, life on Earth disappearing at an alarming rate from a multitude of reasons that mostly boil down to the greed and ignorance of Mankind. There have been estimations that we've lost half of the wildlife on Earth over the past 40 years, I can see it myself in my own backyard. Certain species like Box Turtles and a particular Garden Spider that were common sites when I was a kid are rarely, if ever, seen around here anymore. This is a science fiction concept made real. It's heartbreaking and doesn't bode well for any life on Earth including ourselves.
