NOTES

There is a storm brewing. Humans may survive the turmoil and onslaught of climate change and political upheaval, but the world they leave will be brittle and harsh. In choosing between the market, people, and wildlife, we are casting a future where a tiger's footprints will not be seen in snowdrifts, and the deep, pungent smell of elephant musth won't carry on the wind. Drawing on decades of experience as a wildlife activist, international negotiator, and academic, Dr. Margi Prideaux describes how we can amplify voices from Africa, Asia and Latin America. She presents a poignant essay-we need not march into a tragic future where wildness disappears. Tapping local community wisdom, we can design promising potential. We can choose to hear birdsong after the storm
