Saving the Animals

by Armando Ang

Mankind and animals have populated the Earth for thousands of years.
From the sabre-tooth tigers that threatened the cavemen to the coral reefs that
seem to pose nothing more than glorified undersea museums for today’s
divers: the millions of species of animals have brought both pleasure and
survival lo mankind since time immemorial. But today, in a world of rapidly
advancing industrialization and massive ecosvstem destruction, these very
animals that sustain us are to be lost through the hazards of extinction.

A Japanese author once said: I believe all animals were provided by God
to help keep man alive. Nothing can be truer than that tiny proverb proclaimed
years before the threat of progress began destabilizing our ecosystems. We
must open our eyes and realize the value these animals bring to our daily
living, to the minute joys they bring to our lives. These animals have gone
hand in hand with the greatest animal of all, homo sapiens sapiens.

With the threat encompassing even the archipelago of the Philippines,
now is not a time sooner for all of us to get our acts together in saving the
biodiversity that inhabits this Earth. This hook is one way we can all clear up
the false vision that fogs up our sense of humanity. The author has worked
rigorously in preparing this humble book that presents itself as a collection of
facts that may prove both startling set pacifying Here he acquaints us with
the multitude of cruel practices conducted worldwide that lead to the deaths
and suffering of countless animals; usually to no humanitarian benefit Me
enriches us with facts that are too fascinating to be believed. From the mating
habits to wonderful stories of animal rescues, he manages to enlighten us all
to this world of animals we usually take for granted. Finally, he presents clear
options for us on how to join this worldwide bandwagon to save the precious
animals we have and how to protect them from the juggernaut we call progress.

Written in a concise and entertaining manner; this book will no doubt
provide hours of pleasurable relaxation. In addition, we receive the benefit of
hours and hours of meticulous research that imparts to us a renewed sense of
responsibility we all share in preserving Mother Nature.

I hope you enjoyed and learned from this book as much as I did. I ’m off to
do my pawikan research. Maybe I can still save them from extinction. Let’s
all do our part.
