Earthwise expeditions is dedicated to animal and bird species conservation that bring us numerous hours of delightful watching
Animal species conservation is essential for numerous reasons, including ecological, economic, and ethical aspects. Here are some key importances of conserving animal species:
Conserving animal species helps maintain biodiversity, which is crucial for ecosystem stability. Each species plays a unique role in its ecosystem, contributing to functions such as pollination, seed dispersal, and predator-prey dynamics. The loss of a single species can disrupt these functions and lead to a cascade of negative effects on the entire ecosystem.
Many animal species contribute to local and global economies through activities such as ecotourism, agriculture, and fisheries. Ecotourism, in particular, relies on the presence of diverse and unique wildlife, attracting visitors and generating revenue for communities. Additionally, healthy ecosystems provide resources such as food, medicine, and raw materials that are essential for human livelihoods.
Animal species are valuable for scientific and medical research, providing insights into genetics, physiology, and behavior that can lead to medical advancements and improved understanding of human health. Many medicines, including antibiotics and cancer treatments, are derived from compounds found in animals.
As stewards of the planet, humans have an ethical responsibility to protect and preserve the natural world, including its animal inhabitants. This responsibility includes preventing the extinction of species and ensuring that future generations can experience and benefit from the diversity of life on Earth.
Certain animal species play critical roles in regulating the Earth's climate. For example, large herbivores like elephants and bison influence vegetation patterns, which can affect carbon storage and sequestration. By conserving these species, we help maintain natural processes that mitigate climate change.
Conservation efforts provide opportunities for education and awareness, helping people understand the importance of biodiversity and the need to protect it. Educational programs and initiatives can inspire individuals and communities to take action in support of conservation.
By conserving animal species, we ensure the health and sustainability of ecosystems, support economic and scientific advancements, uphold cultural and ethical values, and contribute to the overall well-being of our planet. 🐅🌿

How its done
From each tourist that sign up with earthwise expeditions, a minimum of $60 goes directly to species conservation fund. This doesn't in any way affect the cost of our tours since these projects do not incur extra costs administratively.
