His powerful message, conveyed with humor, compassion, and art: to know these animals is to save them. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSartore is circling the globe, visiting zoos and wildlife rescue centers to create studio portraits of 12,000 species, with an emphasis on those facing extinction. With a goal of photographing every animal in captivity in the world, he has photographed more than 6,000 already and now, thanks to a multi-year partnership with National Geographic, he may reach his goal. This book showcases his animal portraits: from tiny to mammoth, from the Florida grasshopper sparrow to the greater one-horned rhinoceros. Paired with the eloquent prose of veteran wildlife writer Douglas Chadwick, and an inspiring foreword from Harrison Ford, this book presents a thought-provoking argument for saving all the species of our planet.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eJOEL SARTORE is a photographer, speaker, author, teacher, and a 25-year contributor to \u003ci\u003eNational Geographic \u003c\/i\u003emagazine as well as \u003ci\u003eAudubon, Geo, Time, Life, Newsweek, \u003c\/i\u003eand\u003ci\u003e Sports Illustrated\u003c\/i\u003e.
