    Tim Flach, Jonathan Baillie, Dr. Jonathan Baillie

    eBook (Abrams, Oct. 24, 2017)
    In Endangered, the result of an extraordinary multiyear project to document the lives of threatened species, acclaimed photographer Tim Flach explores one of the most pressing issues of our time. Traveling around the world—to settings ranging from forest to savannah to the polar seas to the great coral reefs—Flach has constructed a powerful visual record of remarkable animals and ecosystems facing harsh challenges. Among them are primates coping with habitat loss, big cats in a losing battle with human settlements, elephants hunted for their ivory, and numer­ous bird species taken as pets. With eminent zoologist Jonathan Baillie providing insightful commentary on this ambitious project, Endangered unfolds as a series of vivid, interconnected stories that pose gripping moral dilemmas, unforgettably expressed by more than 180 of Flach’s incred­ible images.

    Protecting the planet: a thankless job and one that has no breaks! For Zak Bates and his magical friends, the next eco-adventures is usually right around the corner. A fishy reconnaissance mission in the Illinois River leads them to Florida, and it’s there, in the everglades, Ohnmar appears...a very displeased and displaced python. Having been abandoned by his caregiver, who seems to have cared very little, Ohnmar teaches Zak a lesson that may prove useful when an emergency in Ohio demands the gang’s presence. In Zanesville, Ohio, a dangerous menagerie has escaped from a private preserve, and the situation threatens to spiral out of control. Francis, a spirit bear from British Columbia is being held captive, and, to free him, the Eco-Adventurers will need to align with Chatters, a white (knight) squirrel. Though fraught with peril, the breakout might be a chance to mend the globe. A call to arms, to wings and fins... An eloquent environmental message for our times! Endangered is a Zak Bates Eco-Adventure novel that will entertain and enlighten young minds. Fabulous fiction and terrible truths: a romping exploration of the perils faced by our animal friends, posterity, and planet. Don’t miss any of the adventures starting with Ra-Kit's Initiation (ASIN: B007VVT4IA), a prequel to the Zak Bates Eco-adventure series that currently includes Dominion Over All (ASIN: B005IQMH4I), Endangered (ASIN: B07H2VRPS1), and now Ghost Elephant (ASIN: B07VNP67K4).
