The State of the Planet’s Wildlife visits the high country of Montana, Florida’s Everglades, South Africa, Singapore, Bangladesh, Kenya, Zambia, the Amazon, the Arctic, and China.

Specific case studies explore the loss of wildlife as a result of climate change, population and poverty pressures, poaching, the international bush-meat trade, and the loss of wildlife corridors. From severe drought to melting ice, from trophy hunting to loss of habitat through over development, The State of the Planet’s Wildlife makes a comprehensive examination of the many threats faced by animals today.

There are also stories of hope and success, from ranchers learning to restore marshes and bird sanctuaries on their rangeland, to communities who have given up poaching to become stewards of the land, to diverse groups of citizens in Montana who came together to create wildlife corridors to protect endangered species such as the grizzly bear.
