Bears Other I AM A PHILOLOGIST . . .
I AM A PHILOLOGIST . . .

I am a philologist, Graduate in Management of Wildlife and Natural Spaces, and I have a Master's degree in Environmental Intervention.

I combine teaching with some collaborations in nature magazines, trips and photography.

And I am someone who adores this ship that sails along the infinite space and that is called Earth, someone who defends the rights of survival of all the species that inhabit in it.

I am against specism that, based on the "principle of mafia ", is behind the 6th extinction, the one we are now living and, a part of the thousands of animal species we have already  destroyed forever, threatens every day tons more of them.

I am also against anthropocentrism, this philosophy based on Humanism which puts the man in the center and over all things. A kind of white check to justify all its destructive actions, and that worries me.

Following the bears, which are the most beautiful and intelligent animals of the world, I have travelled almost throughout whole Europe (Slovenia, Poland, Romania, Italy, Austria, Spain, France, Slovakia, Hungary ...) and I have also been in the Ecuatorian Andes, in the Baikal Lake and in Siberia, in Kodiak's island, in the National Parks of Denali, Chugach and Kenai (Alaska), in Yellowstone and the Grand Teton N.P. (USA) and in the Riding Mountain N.P. in Manitoba (Canada).

The great attraction that Artic awakens on me, it's its landscapes and wildlife which have taken me up to Barrow (Alaska), Canada, the Svalbard islands, Iceland and Greenland.

I have been in four occasions in Churchill, next to Wapusk Nacional Park (Canada), observing and photographing polar bears, which are the most threatened mammals of the world and are doomed to lose their  habitat because the climatic change is threatening to melt the Artic ocean, their unique habitat.

If the ice disappears, they will disappear too.

I invite you, to all of you who have arrived here, to fight for the preservation of all the wealths of this planet, for its so diverse and magnificent life and, above all, for its future.
