READING #14 - Reason to Hope.

Well first of all I wanted to point out something about Sturgeon. This is an amazing prehistoric fish raising awareness in many places. Where I came from in Florida the Yellow River was a clean habitat where they still live. There were signs all up and down the sides of the river saying "Beware of jumping Sturgeon." Now where I live in North Carolina there is something called "Riverworks at Sturgeon City" which is a clean up effort to restore the habitat of the Wilson Bay to get rid of the sludge keeping the bottom-feeding sturgeon from eating and returning to breed.
Back to the question. . .
This question boggles me a bit. I do feel that there is always a reason for children to hope and enjoy their youth, while still respecting and learning about our history and our habitat. I feel it is very important for children to know what we share our habitat with and how their lives are just as important as our own. Although I am disappointed with our preservation attempts there is always a reason to hope.
