Volume 8 Number 2: Wildlife Conservation Across International Borders

"Borders? I have never seen one, but have heard they exist in the minds of some people" -Thor Heyerdahl, 1914-2002

When we travel abroad, we need to carry documents that credit our identities, usually our passports. However, there are many living organisms that move back and forth through international borders without any trouble. Some of these are endangered, and scientists and governments from neighboring countries join in projects to protect them.

This issue of The Wild Times explores Wildlife Conservation Across International Borders. Get ready to learn all about animals that feel at home in several countries, and the scientists who study them.

Encourage your students to share their artwork and observations with The Wild Ones. If you send us their artwork, like the members featured in the current issue, they might be in the next issue!

You can still contribute to this theme! Your submissions will appear as linked articles on the web site.
