In the past century, we have lost over 500 species of animals. Many of these deaths were meaningless and easily preventable. The causes of these deaths were human interference and ignorance towards their habitats and needs. I believe all animals are on this earth to serve an important purpose. Though some may be seen as vermin, they are intelligent and worth defending. Through this series, I show the beauty of these long-lost creatures in hopes of inspiring others to be aware of the other inhabitants of this world we share.
