Wildlife Crossings of Hope: Connecting Creatures Around the Globe (Books for a Better Earth)

Summary

An NSTA Outstanding Science Trade Book for Students K-12

Let's explore together how scientists, engineers, and lots of everyday people are working to make sure that the wildlife so essential to Earth's health and beauty continues to freely move through the landscapes, waterways, and skylines of this richly inhabited planet.

Wildlife Crossings of Hope takes a personal, in-depth look at wildlife crossings, corridor projects, and dam removal efforts around the world, from an underpass for elephants in Kenya to the Un-Dam the Klamath movement in the United States to the Mesoamerican Biological Corridor, which extends from southern Mexico to Panama. 

Above all, this is a book that invites young people to think of themselves and wildlife as part of one community that urgently needs restoration and protection.

Books for a Better Earth™ are designed to inspire children to become active, knowledgeable participants in caring for the planet they live on.
