National Geographic Photographer and friend of the Houston Zoo Joel Sartore has published another fantastic book: Rare: Portraits of America’s Endangered Species which features portraits of some of the country’s most endangered creatures from flies to wolves. Some of them are likely to go extinct without people ever knowing they existed. Go to http://joelsartore.com/rare/ to view and tell me how the St. Andrew’s Beach Mouse is not absolutely the most adorable rodent ever photographed.
disclaimer – Houston Zoo receives no compensation for this – the book is just full of fantastic images and the message is something we all need to be aware of
