Fuller, from Page 1
"It only takes a few minutes to'
rip apart a fortSf Filler. She
was talking about the current ef¬
fects of cuttingdown tropical rain
forests.
The rain forests contain about
50 percent of the world's biologi¬
cal diversity. But economic de¬
mands are causing them to be cut
down. Fuller said the problem is
tbal even when just one tree is
cut, it can effect all trees because
they are intertwined.
"When a tree falls in a forest,
wehavetohearit because it could
mean the whole forest," Fuller
said.
But it's not only die environ¬
ment that Fuller and the WWF
are concerned with. During her
Fuller said the rhinoceros is
one animal facing extinction be¬
cause of their highly treasured
horns. The horns are used in tra¬
ditional Asian medicine.
New light is being shed on the
demands for animal parts. Strict
international laws are getting
closer to being made in order stop
international wildlife trades. The
closing of black markets for ani¬
mals are being addressed.
Fuller said black markets are
created by die strong demand for
animals parts like rhinoceros
horns and bear gal bladders. She
said the parts arg in such demand
that "prices are comparable to die
drug trade."
The demands for these mar¬
kets cause many animals to be in
lecture, FuUer mentioned severar^ctenger of extinction. Sea turtles,
animals that are facing problems African elephants and some eight
impacted by humans. different species of bears are the
most sought after, on the blacl
market
In a closer sense, Fuller ac
knowledged that not all conser¬
vation occurs outside the coun¬
try. She said other countries an
"so foreign, so different but the
issues do seem die same at the
bottom."
She said environmental prob
lems in Fresno are different bu*
comparable to problems in othei
places.
The job of die conservationist
is also about looking at long tenr
views, according to Fuller/
"Nothing comes easy-thest
days for conservationists," Fullei
said.
'To all the conservation stu¬
dents out there tonight learn al
you can but be careful not to un-
leam things, like the simple thing!
of regarding life,"
