C.A.R.E.S. Preservation Program Purpose and Goals
The purpose of the C.A.R.E.S. Preservation Program is to encourage hobbyists worldwide to devote tank space to one or more species-at-risk, while forming an information network between aquarists, scientists, and conservationists.
The C.A.R.E.S. Preservation Program has four major goals:
- To bring AWARENESS to the critical situation of our fish in nature
- To RECOGNIZE, ENCOURAGE, and offer SUPPORT to hobbyists who maintain species-at-risk
- To SHARE data and experiences through notes, graphing, and manuscripts so that others may learn to maintain those identical, and similar species
- To PRESERVE species-at-risk for future generations
The C.A.R.E.S. (Conservation, Awareness, Recognition, Encouragement, and Support) Preservation Program is based on the critical and timely significance of Conservation, our Awareness, as hobbyists, of the issues involved, and the public Recognition of members, offering Encouragement and Support for those who take part in playing a vital role in ensuring a positive future for species-at-risk.
I truly welcome you and am so glad to have you as a part of this global endeavor! Should you have any questions, or if I can be of help in any way, please do not hesitate to ask!
The C.A.R.E.S. Preservation Program is about our fish,
and it is about people.
We are one team, working together. Please, clear a tank ~ save a fish!
Because of you, we are making a difference! |
