Joel Sartore (www.joelsartore.com) is a renowned photographer for National Geographic and Defenders of Wildlife has been fortunate enough to welcome him to our Board of Directors this year.  His passion for wildlife conservation takes him all over the world and is prominently reflected in his photographs, which show the vast array of wildlife that are threatened with extinction and the beauty and uniqueness of each creature in a way that words never could.

Joel is currently writing a multipart series of blogs about trips he has taken to zoos all over the country for National Geographic as part of his Biodiversity Project. Joel and National Geographic have been generous enough to share his photos and words chronicling his experience with us.  We will be posting his blog series every Monday along with his stunning photographs and even some videos so we hope you will check back each week and follow along on his adventures.
