You say that we are critically endangered, that our numbers represent a mere 10% of our population three generations ago. You look through us, because to see us is to face a hard truth. Our fate, our pain, our death …. Is not because of us, it is because of you. We say this not to cast blame but to encourage. Our life, our rise, our return is also in your hands! We are strong, we are resilient, and we are fearless, with your support we will have a chance.
 
This image composed of thousands of strokes of paint when seen up close may dazzle the eye, but take a step back and see this amazing composition unfold. Strength, resilience and fearlessness overlaid with opportunity.
