I’ve been doing more background research on animals that exhibit aggregate behaviour and I keep seeing, in bios and home pages, something along the lines of “When so and so was a certain age, they liked to watch [insert animal here]. They eventually became a conservation ecologists/conservationist/environmentalist because they noticed that the number of [said animals] that they saw was getting fewer and fewer. This person is a great example of this, I think.
The reason I find this interesting is that I know that I don’t have enough
connection with any animals in nature to be able to tell when their
numbers are getting fewer.
