...continued from page 107 A LEGEND IN PERIL Most of us are aware that the quetzal is an endangered species. But if the quetzal is just one of perhaps 30 million species on the planet, why would its disappearance be of any great importance? How could this negatively impact humanity and nature? If the quetzal, one of the most beautiful creatures on Earth, becomes extinct, it will be because we allowed humans to destroy them. Knowing that we are accountable, regardless of the fact that it is one species among many, will be the cause of lasting dishonor and sadness for the human family. The decline of the quetzal is not an isolated occurrence. It is just one example of what is happening in general to nearly all naturallife systems around the world. The quetzal is in decline because forests where they live are <strong>11</strong>6 » revuemag.com Green areas are National Parks and Wildlife Reserves being destroyed. Already more than 80% of the original forests have been eliminated. There is small relief in the fact that there are more than 50 cloud forest reserves in Mesoamerica that protect the resplendent quetzal’s habitat. These range from small, private reserve projects such as the one established at Chelemha in Alta Verapaz in Guatemala, to the huge, magnificent El Triunfo Biosphere Reserve in Chiapas, Mexico. Every country in Central America has its own cloud forest protected areas and they are all worthy of a visit. We hope to preserve enough cloud forest habitat in Central America to ensure that the quetzal may continue to be the living, legendary symbol of freedom.
