With National Geographic photographer Joel Sartore.

"Renowned National Geographic photographer Joel Sartore is creating a Photo Ark, a digital collection of the world’s rare and at-risk mammals, fish, amphibians, birds, reptiles, and insects. Follow Sartore as he documents threatened species in the wild, at zoos, and in nature preserves and hear from scientists as they reveal surprising information about why ensuring the future of these animals is so critical. From a 500-pound, 150-year old giant tortoise refusing to get ready for his close-up, to an elusive bunny taking refuge near an active US Navy airstrip, it’s all in a day’s work for Sartore. He knows he is in a race against time, for some species are disappearing before he can photograph them. Rare looks at factors driving extinction, including deforestation, rising sea levels, invasive species pollution, and human development, which all impact creatures essential to the world’s ecosystems. Journey with Sartore across the globe as he seeks to inspire people through photography to want to protect the many species of our planet."--Container.
