Reviews
"This is one of the most scientifically important--and artistically brilliant--books ever. I don't know of any other book that has such power. You cannot see these sensitive portraits of the diversity of animals living on Planet Earth and not be entranced. And moved. And inspired to do all you can to ensure they stay with us. Joel Sartore is an ambassador extraordinaire for the beleaguered animals of our planet and should receive a Nobel Prize. No one can look at these sensitive portraits of the incredible animal beings and not be amazed and inspired to do all in our power to preserve them--all of them, all the complex tapestry of life--for our children and theirs. I can think of no other book with such a compelling message: We must each do all that we can to preserve these incredible beings--all of them. And we must act now, or it will be too late for most of them."--Jane Goodall "Joel Sartore's The Photo Ark is a magnificent, awe-inspiring, encyclopedic, and forward-looking book. It surely will be game-changer for getting people to connect or to reconnect with other animals and the various landscapes that serve as their homes--to 'rewild' their heart--and to become deeply re-enchanted with the remarkable, fascinating, and diverse beings with whom we share our wondrous planet. I shall share it widely with a broad audience, including youngsters, who are the ambassadors for our and other animals' future. I hope this spectacular work of art enjoys a global audience, and I honestly don't see how it won't. It is that good."--Marc Bekoff "We owe it to these animals, as they struggle for survival on a human-dominated planet, to look them in the eye. Joel Sartore's awestruck and awe-inspiring photos make that an experience of deep heart and beauty."--David Quammen

AWESOME AND FANTASTICALLY BEAUTIFUL PHOTOGRAPHS!!!!
FANTASTICALLY BEAUTIFUL PHOTOGRAPHS!!!! AWESOME!!!!!! If you saw the 3 part PBS series this past summer "Rare: The Photo Ark" on PBS showing how he traveled all over the world, and how many of these pictures were taken you have a hint how beautiful they are!!!! Includes the photo of the LAST male Northern white rhino left alive (at the time the photo was taken) on earth----named Sudan ---taken just two weeks before he died of illness from old age!!! There are ONLY TWO Northern white rhino now on the planet!!!! Both are aging females!!! The Photo Ark is intended specifically to be a permanent photo record of animal species, especially those who will be extinct (due to humans) or already are, so future human generations can see what they looked like. The photos are so clear it is like the animals could come alive right off the pages!!!!!!!!!!!! BEAUTIFUL!!!!!! FANTASTIC!!!!!Read full review

In these times, this is a "must" read
This is an extraordinary, beautiful book. There should be one in every home. The photographer is very, very good, and his work is so valuable to all animals of the earth. It is high quality, and worth every penny of it's cost. All people, especially young people in school, should have access to this book...

The Photo Ark
Great photo album of rarely seen, endangered animals. I bought after seeing the National Geographic show of the same name,where they actually showed the animals being photographed. Great organization, great book, and a great show.
