Besides the Alabama projects noted in my conservation statement, I am interested in the Black Jaguar Project in Brazil where they are reforesting on a grand scale to create the Araguaia Biodiversity Corridor to help local flora and fauna and the planet in general as well.  On a smaller scale, my daughters and I recently visited the Laguna Atascosa National Wildlife Refuge near Brownsville, Texas for a fundraiser benefitting their ocelots by creating safety corridors to mitigate highway deaths.  I have pledged a painting for next year's event.
