1. What interaction with an animal and/or nature in your life has had the biggest impact on you?
Far too many to list, but first memorable one was age 6, discovering a lizard (Lacerta vivipara) in my sand pit. Since then numerous others, dependent on time, place and circumstances. Wildlife and nature have simply had the biggest impact on my life than any other.
2. Did you have a favorite place in the great outdoors during your childhood?
Depends on how you define childhood. But from 9-15 it would have been a local oak-wood, after that a sewage farm (birdwatching)
Now? Dry Chaco of Paraguay
3. As a former zookeeper, I would love to know what your favorite animal is and why?
Have never had a favourite but tend to side with the unloved animals of the world – amphibians, reptiles, bats etc. Have a special passion for European Brown Hare
4. What do you think is the greatest environmental challenge facing us now, and what do you think will be the greatest challenge in the future?
a) human population
b) human population
5. If you could give one piece of advice regarding the environment and our natural resources, what would it be?
Persuade governments that human population increase is a very serious threat.
Thanks to my sister Michelle McIlroy for designing the logo!

1. What interaction with an animal and/or nature in your life has had the biggest impact on you?
It would have to be a visit to a palm forest on a mountain top in what is now the Endau Rompin National Park in Johor, Malaysia. It is an ageless place where you can see the balance of the ecosystem very clearly and things remain unchanged for years.
2. Did you have a favorite place in the great outdoors during your childhood?
The beach and mangrove forests of Port Dickson, Malaysia. Unfortunately most of that is severely degraded today.
Now? It would still have to be Endau Rompin National Park.
3. As a former zookeeper, I would love to know what your favorite animal is and why?
It would be the Grey Squirrel primarily because I enjoy interacting with an intelligent and relatively un-shy animal.
4. What do you think is the greatest environmental challenge facing us now, and what do you think will be the greatest challenge in the future?
Our immediate emergency has to be climate change which threatens our environment, our food security, water availability and species survival. The challenge for the future is to reduce our impact of ecological footprint which can only be done if we curb rampant consumerism and wastage as well as take steps to reduce or control population growth. The truth is that the Earth’s ability to support us and our lifestyle is finite.
5. If you could give one piece of advice regarding the environment and our natural resources, what would it be?
That we must take responsibility of the problem and act in our own lives to reduce impact and lobby corporations and governments for more sustainable practices.

1. What interaction with an animal and/or nature in your life has had the biggest impact on you?
I grew up in Salt Point, NY, where there is a mixture of farmland and forests. The Wappinger Creek flowed through my parent's back yard, and a little inlet formed there on their property in the woods. I spent most of my playtime exploring those woods and the creek, and that experience shaped my interest in nature and the environment. My parents also took me and my sister hiking each Columbus Day in the Swawangunk Mountains, to Skytop. This too inspired my love of the outdoors. Later in life, I spent several years as the environmental reporter for the Poughkeepsie Journal, and this gave me the opportunity to meet and interact with scientists and advocates in a variety of landscapes, and to focus on a variety of environmental issues. Crawling under the Mid-Hudson bridge to see nesting peregrine falcons, catching giant sturgeon in the Hudson River, searching for bog turtles in swamps, watching the annual hawk or Monarch butterfly migrations, catching shad and blue crabs with commercial fishermen -- all these experienced shaped my love of the outdoors and the environment. The added benefit of seeing other peoples' passion and expertise enhanced the experience.
2. Did you have a favorite place in the great outdoors during your childhood?
See above. Certain bends in the Wappinger Creek, and trails on the Shawangunk Ridge are important to me.
Now?
Those landscapes are still important. My favorite places now are in the Catskill Mountains, where the sense of remoteness and wilderness are easy to find. There's a sense of calm I get there like no other.
3. As a former zookeeper, I would love to know what your favorite animal is, and why?
My favorite animal is my dog, Mookie. As for a favorite species, it's tough to say. I love monkeys but don't often interact with them. I love the birds that come to my feeder, particularly a red-breasted nuthatch that has lately been making the rounds. I've always loved hawks (and even vultures) and admired the way they soar high above. I don't think I have a favorite, but I love coming across new animals, or encountering them. Actually, I've got it. My favorite "animal" is the conglomeration of summer insects that buzz -- the crickets, katydids, cicadas and the like. That sound is not only a "favorite" but I consider it an essential piece of my happiness.
4. What do you think is the greatest environmental challenge facing us now, and what do you think will be the greatest challenge in the future?
Global warming is a huge problem, and I worry about reports that indicators of significant change are occurring faster than scientists first predicted. Because of the significant negative effects that are to come, and because the potential solutions to the global warming problem have the potential to encompass so many other issues, it's the single most important issue of this day and of the future. In near-terms, suburban sprawl is a huge issue in my home in the Hudson Valley. The loss of species, wildlife habitat, water quality, air quality and productive farm soils are among the serious consequences of the unchecked development that has occurred, particularly in the past five-plus years.
5. If you could give everyone one piece of advice regarding the environment and our natural resources, what would it be?
Do one thing today. Do another tomorrow. And so on. Also, go outside and get inspired. And take a kid with you. It's essential to the future of the environment, because if we don't have a personal connection to it we won't care enough to do anything as it is degraded.
PS - I see you're in Ravena, NY. I did some writing about the cement plants in the Hudson Valley, and there's a biggie in Ravena. I'm curious if it had any bearing on your interest in environmental issues...

Visiting the zoo and the National Park in New Zealand
2. Did you have a favorite place in the great outdoors during your childhood?
Going to the garden/farm with my parents. Also since we live in the coasts of the islands, we enjoy going fishing and swimming in the tropical warm waters.
Now? Swimming in the tropical warm waters.
3. As a former zookeeper, I would love to know what your favorite animal is, and why?
Our family dog named LOLO because he provides security to our home from thieves.
4. What do you think is the greatest environmental challenge facing us now, and what do you think will be the greatest challenge in the future?
Climate Change is biggest environmental problem and the future. Because it affects all sectors of the society and more so is the small island states and the least developed countries who have low capacity to deal with the impacts of climate change.
5. If you could give everyone one piece of advice regarding the environment and our natural resources, what would it be?
a. The larger emitters of CFCs to show the world that they are responsible for the problem of climate change. That is ACTION…reduce the CFCs into the atmosphere.
b. Assist least developed and small island countries in adapting to climate change

1. What interaction with an animal and/or nature in your life has had the biggest impact on you?
Visiting National Parks has had the biggest impact on me (especially Great Smoky Mountains National Park)
2. Did you have a favorite place in the great outdoors during your childhood?
Great Smoky Mountains National Park
Now? Great Smoky Mountains National Park, New River Gorge National River
3. As a former zookeeper, I would love to know what your favorite animal is, and why?
My dog Nikka (I consider her like a daughter however, so that may be a bad example)
Black Bears and Cattle are my favorite animals. I have lived around cows my entire life.
They are both handsome animals, but I couldn't really tell you why I like them so much.
4. What do you think is the greatest environmental challenge facing us now, and what do you think will be the greatest challenge in the future?
I think the biggest environmental challenge is urban and suburban sprawl. Natural land area is decreasing rapidly. Animal habitats are being destroyed, farming is being affected. I believe this problem will continue and be the greatest challenge in the future as well.
5. If you could give everyone one piece of advice regarding the environment and our natural resources, what would it be?
Enjoy it while it lasts.

1. What interaction with an animal and/or nature in your life has had the biggest impact on you?
Seeing my first deer rut at Petworth Park, Sussex, UK. As I walked into the park I could hear the stags roaring, and then the clashing of antlers. I've never felt so much testosterone in one place! I am a devotee of the old Pagan Horned God Herne, who is Lord of Animals, so this close encounter with the rutting deer really helped me to feel closer to him, and the wild.
2. Did you have a favorite place in the great outdoors during your childhood?
The local woods I used to play in, just down my road. It's now under a housing estate.
Now? Mmmmm. I'd have to say anywhere out in nature, away from the sound of traffic, and other people.
3. As a former zookeeper, I would love to know what your favorite animal is, and why?
My favourite animals are dogs. they are so expressive, loyal, yet independent. They are strong, and playful too.
4. What do you think is the greatest environmental challenge facing us now, and what do you think will be the greatest challenge in the future?
Blimey, so many things I could say. I would say over population is a growing concern, it is a problem now, because there are so many of us consuming the earth's limited resources. Nature has been able to control populations in the past, but we've created so many drugs now that our lives and survival rate are unnatural.
5. If you could give everyone one piece of advice regarding the environment and our natural resources, what would it be?
Think about EVERY use of energy in your life, and make changes to cut it down, or change it into a more environmentally friendly form. Sadly I don't think enough people are taking notice, but in the end, when the oil and gas run out, then they'll have to sit up and open their eyes.

Today’s Date: 14 March 2007
1. What interaction with an animal and/or nature in your life has had the biggest impact on you?
Yellow Monitor Lizard, a key stone but endangered species of Sundarban (UNESCO declared World Heritage site) region made me dedicated to undertake for its conservation because the lizards are used as a bait for crab harvesting by promoting nature conservation ethics and occupational ethics among the Sundarban crab collectors. Moreover I was brought up in the village and fears while seeing them in our wild gardens and ditches when it came to home yard for eating chicks. I have the experience to observe fighting between snake and lizard several times at the back side of our home full of weeds, ditch, pond and canal linked with river.
2. Did you have a favorite place in the great outdoors during your childhood?
My village named Shialidanga under Batiaghata Upazilla of Khulna District of Bangladesh where different flora, fauna covered the area including Yellow Monitor Lizard.
Now? The wild garden, herbs and thicket disappears due to increased salinity caused by global warming.
3. As a former zookeeper, I would love to know what your favorite animal is, and why?
Monkey because they are our immediate ancestors and good friend of deer by warn them making noise and throwing branches from the top of the tree in order to escape the deer from tiger at the Sundarban Mangrove Reserved Forests (SMRF)
4. What do you think is the greatest environmental challenge facing us now, and what do you think will be the greatest challenge in the future?
Climate Change is the greatest environmental threat that the humankind has faced so far and the impacts are high for the low-lying countries situated at low altitude and nearby sea such as Bangladesh and Maldeep. Due to adverse impact of the global climate change, we will loose our Sundarban (our shelter prevent from frequent cyclone, flood and tidal bore) by next 50 years thus loose our buffer thus our pride and image of the Bengal tiger, the flagship species.
5. If you could give everyone one piece of advice regarding the environment and our natural resources, what would it be?
a) ACT NOW for the conservation of our mother Earth, the planet, the nature
b) Show yourself by doing before instruct others for doing
c) Think globally and act locally
