This is written as a response to my last post, “A Letter to Mankind.” It is inspired by the #ExtinctionEndsHere and #EndTheTrade petition, a worldwide movement to call on the world’s governments to permanently end the commercial trade and sale in markets of wild terrestrial animals for consumption.

Wildlife conservation and the preservation of our world is something very near and dear to my heart, and I would do all I can to call attention to the issues that surround our planet today.
Dear Earth,
We have done much to deserve retaliation. We have felled your rainforests, we have spilled oil into your seas, we have slain your creatures for riches, oddities, even enjoyment. And we do not look over our shoulders at what we leave behind—no. We tend to only look ahead, to the future, to the next age of glory. To what lays beyond our shores.
