All beings seek ease and freedom from suffering, yet we find ourselves beset by environmental crises – climate, biodiversity loss and global health – very often of our own making. But all is not lost. The solutions we seek lie in the very nature that we hope to save. With a century-long tradition of success, the Wildlife Conservation Society has proven that conservation works. Join us.

While advocating to protect this remarkable ocean habitat just off the coast of NYC, Turner's class is also learning all about the marine animals that call the canyon home — sea turtles, sharks, and rays, to name a few — thanks to an aquarium exhibit replicating the unique ecosystem found there. This story is a part of the Wildlife Conservation Society's effort to designate the Hudson Canyon as a National Marine Sanctuary.

Captain Alan Lee, a seasoned fisherman, navigates the New York seascape as a guardian in his role as chair of the Hudson Canyon Sanctuary Advisory Council. Witnessing the wonders of these waters — whales, dolphins, sea turtles, a vibrant ecosystem — Captain Lee advocates for its preservation. His mission? A simple yet profound one: "I would like to see the canyon accessible for my kids and grandkids." This story is a part of the Wildlife Conservation Society's effort to designate the Hudson Canyon as a National Marine Sanctuary.

Jim leads WCS’s four zoos and aquarium, which collectively house over 20,000 animals representing more than 1,550 species—the largest coordinated collection of animals in the world. He has been with WCS for over 50 years. Over the course of his distinguished career, Jim has connected WCS’s zoo- and field-based conservation work, leading reintroduction programs for species at the brink of extinction ranging from Kihansi spray toads to American bison. He has also overseen the opening of many exhibits that introduce visitors to our field conservation work, including Madagascar! at the Bronx Zoo and Donald Zucker and Barbara Hrbek Zucker Ocean Wonders: Sharks! at the New York Aquarium. Jim has a long record of contributions to the Association of Zoos & Aquariums (AZA), including serving as Chair of the Board of Directors. He also championed the successful effort to increase AZA member financial support to field conservation programs: AZA members currently contribute over $250 million annually to global conservation efforts. Jim has served on the boards of numerous other conservation organizations. One of Jim’s greatest contributions to the zoo and aquarium community is the docuseries THE ZOO, which aired for five seasons on Animal Planet and appeared in over 200 markets around the world. At a time when the public perception of zoos had declined, THE ZOO took millions of viewers behind the scenes and told the story of how we care for animals, changing the public’s view of not only the Bronx Zoo, but zoos and aquariums around the world.
