"Without
knowing it, we utilize hundreds of products each
day that owe their origin to wild animals and plants.

welfare of wildlife. Well may conservationists proclaim
that by saving the lives of wild species, we may
be saving our own."

is nothing so American as our national parks. The
scenery and wildlife are native. The fundamental
idea behind the parks is native. The parks stand
as the outward symbol of this great human principle.
~ Franklin

This is the way, or at least one of the ways,
to spiritual, moral, and cultural regeneration.
~ E.F. Schumacher

"Those
who wish to pet and baby wildlife love them, but
those who respect their natures and wish to let
them live their natural lives, love them more."
