      Foreword

      Animals enrich our planet and our lives with the power to inspire us, heal us, sustain us, and — by teaching us about the world and ourselves — make us more human. They are a vital part of the web of life on Earth upon which all of us depend, and it is essential not only to protect the remarkable creatures with whom we share the planet, but to teach today’s young people to value and preserve this rich legacy for future generations.

      In the face of what experts are calling a Sixth Mass Extinction, with animal species disappearing so fast that two-thirds of all wild animals could be gone by the end of the decade, today’s zoos, aquariums, and conservation centers have become modern day arks of hope for many species.

      These institutions serve not only as vessels to safely house and help sustain populations of critically endangered animals, but perform rescues of wild creatures, and fund thousands of conservation projects. Perhaps equally important, they play a critical role in serving as vital ambassadors for wildlife, introducing millions of people to and helping them care for these unique creatures.

      After all, people won’t protect what they don’t love. And they can’t love what they don’t know.

      To help preserve and ensure that these treasured creatures are well cared for, American Humane, the country’s first national humane organization and the largest certifier of the welfare of animals in the world, launched the first-of-its-kind American Humane ConservationTM program. This global effort works to help ensure the welfare and humane treatment of the millions of remarkable and endangered creatures living in zoos, aquariums, and conservation centers, as well as shine a light on the leading institutions that have voluntarily stepped forward to meet and regularly verify rigorous, science-based standards of care created and backed by many of the most iconic names in science, animal welfare, and the conservation field.

      In this series of grade-appropriate books aimed at teaching the value of humane conservation, we seek to introduce children to the amazing animals — from wily wolves to endangered elephants to a penguin with a problem — who share and enrich our world, and the critically important work that is being done to help them survive.

      Through these stories it is our
