About this audiobook
You are among the last in a long line of animals that were the likeliest to survive half a billion years of evolution. But you couldn't be here today
without all other wildlife. Over the past fifty years we've killed three quarters of the creatures we need to keep ecosystems healthy. Now we
have a choice to make: re-find our place among them, or succumb to the power of nature.
This easy-to-read popular science book tells the untold story of why wildlife conservation is our greatest chance to rebuild a habitable Earth. Take a journey through some of our planet's most spectacular wildlife events and learn how the world works, the origin of life and our place in nature. This is the story of why animals are humanity's best hope. It’s also about your role in creating a more habitable planet for humanity, one that will again be rich with a diversity of colourful, and abundant wildlife.
