The 244-page, bilingual book is the first of its kind to assemble such a diverse collection of the animals found within the Southern Cone. Five chapters contain 150 wildlife images with corresponding captions describing behavior, conservation issues, and conservation status.

For those who work in conservation, especially in South America, it is a true labor of love. We wish to honor their dedication and sacrifice. Our call to action includes a request for global support of these people and organizations for many of these images would not exist without the help received from generous individuals such as these.¿President Mauricio Macri of Argentina joins Laura¿s call to action. In the foreword, he writes:¿The richness that surrounds us is changing at an accelerated speed. The planet is undergoing significant changes due to human activities. This context of climate change and extinction crisis obligates us to think in new paradigms.¿ Considering todays political climate, this message has never been more important.
