Washington State is home to 31 threatened or endangered specie of animals. Stretching from the fearless Bald Eagle to the noble Chinook salmon, these animals are dying in huge numbers everyday due to human interferences. The purpose of my blog is to highlight the causes for this drastic decline in local wildlife, and more importantly, what we can do to help it.
Growing up, I can remember fond memories of crossing the street and darting into the forest; to build yet another room onto our already HUGE tree fort! Today, some of my favorite joys come from being outside, playing with animals, and even a little gardening. That last time I went into the city, I was astounded by the amount of pollution and lack of greenery. When I finally escaped back home, the fresh air reminded me how much one takes for granted a few plants and animals. It doesn’t take much effort to better our planet, if everyone helps a little, it will create a large improvement.
That is what has motivated me today to write this blog. I hope that this website will serve as an informational site to offer people important news about local wildlife that is on the brink of extinction. Ultimately, I hope that it serves as an important archive full of rich resources the public may access in order to better the world around them.
