The "Copper Knight" fish ("Chevalier Cuivre", of which we talk about a little further down)) is one example of the threathened species on Earth. My aim is to socially advance the wellness of individuals as well as raising the awareness of everyone regarding conservation and the plight of wild animals that are so very fast disappearing from nature. Of their natural habitats that are destroyed by man with no thought to the future of this planet. The clearcutting happening to some of the Old Growth forests of British Columbia and the fight of those wanting to save some of them for the future, for example the Walbran Valley or the Stoltman. The on-going land-fills of the Wetlands for residential purposes, disrupting the natural food chain. The annihilation of the rain forests? This destruction of the tropical Rainforest will not only wipe out thousands of different species that live there it will also disrupt the earth's atmosphere- A disaster for all mankind!! Yes closer to home, in Canada, one of our old friends is fast disappearing!!! The commonly known "Sucker" carp, not so long ago a friendly inhabitant of some rivers of Quebec, has almost totally disappeared??? Renamed Copper Knight - Chevalier Cuivre, read about its fight for survival. On the 13th of December 1998 "la Semaine Verte" on the Radio-Canada TV Chanel, talked about a newly identified frog: The little frog with long-tail, which were found in West Vancouver, BC, by a group of Young Naturalists. An expert (Ms.Dupuis) from the University is researching them since then, but it seems that the stream where they were found has been planned for Development. Nevertheless the appeal made at the council may have some impact. The Long-Tailed Small Frog had been found up to 100 meters from the stream. The stream will be (for now) protected to 30 Meters. Support and interest will help this Cause. Inquire at West Vancouver City Hall for more info or apply at "La Semaine Verte" for an up-date. The duties of the owners of housepets.
