Endangered Species Project Prints by Karen Day
Conceptually reinforcing the threat to certain species' existence, the Endangered Species Print Project creates limited edition prints of critically endangered animals directly correlating the number of prints produced to the number of animals remaining in the wild.
Artists Jenny Kendler and Molly Schafer head up the project, lending each image their drawing talents and donating the net proceeds from each print to the appropriate conservation organization, such as the The Marmot Recovery Foundation or Project Golden Frog.
Additionally the altruistic duo provide a blog full of statistics and background information on each animal, providing insight as to what threatens each species and how to help save them.
The prints are available for purchase for $50 through the Endangered Species Project website or their Etsy store.
