Joel Sartore
Photograph by Joel SartoreBest known for his photographs of wildlife, particularly endangered species, Joel Sartore wields his camera in the battle to conserve natural spaces and the habitats they support. This mission has taken him to some of the world’s most remote and dangerous places, where he has risked serious illness and exposed himself to attacks by deadly animals in order to get images that bear testimony to the plight of our natural world. His entertaining presentations blend humor with powerful conservation messages and award-winning photography of wildlife and the places they inhabit.
For a story published in the November 2010 issue of National Geographic, Sartore tracked the annual migrations of several North American animal species, from terrestrial creatures such as bobcats and pronghorn antelopes, to the amazing journey of the monarch butterfly, to the spectacular mass airborne movements of sandhill cranes and other birds.
In this presentation, you’ll step behind the camera with this distinguished wildlife photographer as he shares amazing stories and images of animals on the move.
