This book examines the current condition of our rapidly changing landscape, the accelerated rate of extinctions and the fragile places where man and nature collide.
Light and sound pollution, roadways, water diversions, introduction of invasive species in the movement of goods, deforestation, and other recent changes have made much of our planet unrecognizable to countless species.
The darkness which surrounds my subjects is analogous to the lack of familiarity and inability for organisms to recognize and adapt to the new world around them.
