Imagine
the planet was one hour old. Over this period plants
and animals have evolved to inhabit all four corners
of the globe, some of it still unknown to science.
Now more than 30 million species share the planet,
but only one is capable of wiping them all out forever.
Humans have only been on earth for less than a second
using the hour clock, and in that time we have managed
to place many plants and animals in imminent danger
of extinction not to mention the many species that
have already disappeared.
N.Z.A.C.T is a volunteer organisation that works
hand in hand with the National Zoo & Aquarium
and
PACT, (Positive Actions Conservation Team). These
three organisations are working together to save
some of
the worlds most endangered species from extinction.
NZACT works with the National Zoo & Aquarium
to help develop
programss for species that are held in captivity
and that are critically endangered in the wild.
This is done through
breeding programs and educating zoo visitors about
the world and the part that these animals play.
Species at the zoo such as the Malayan Sun Bear
and Sumatran Tiger have been a focus for the group.
Join N.Z.A.C.T so we can all enjoy a better planet
tomorrow.
N.Z.A.C.T Members are automatically annual members
of the National Zoo & Aquarium.
Memberships are for a minimum of 12 months initially,
