Mike is an enthusiastic conservationist and a lifetime member of the
American Cetacean Society and World Wildlife Fund. Wilderness areas and their inhabitants are under increasing threat from overpopulation. Unchecked pollution and excessive fishing are decimating our oceans and endangering the habitats of marine mammals.
As appreciation in wildlife and conservation grows, so does interest
in wildlife photography. For most of us, trips to game reserves, national parks and marine sanctuaries, supplemented by visits to zoos, offer the best opportunities to view and photograph wildlife.
