野生动物的最后100次心跳 (一)
Today, life on earth is under serious threat, with many of our planet species now teetering on the edge of extinction. If we stay in our current course, within the next twenty years, we are at risk of losing one out of every five species living on the planet. And by the middle of this century, more than one million species could vanish forever.
Most vulnerable species that have been reduced to one hundred individuals or less, they are quite literally 100 heartbeats from extinction.
What is the cause? And are we too late to reverse the course?
Our mission is to explore remote and vulnerable ecosystems to witness the species pushed to the brink and the conservation heroes fighting to save them.
"This is what it's all about."
"He's part of my heart, my soul and I've dedicated to him."
From the jungles of Sumatra, to the African Savana, to the California coast. This is 100 heartbeats.

The title of the documentary and the book--100 Heartbeats--came from an article that I read when I was an undergraduate student. I was at Bridgewater State College. I started doing a lot of field work and conservation work, mostly in Central and South America. And I came across this article in Time magazine written by E. O. Wilson, who is a famous, highly respected scientist, certainly an idle and an icon for me. And basically in his article, he touches on this idea of 100 heartbeats: that we could be very close in the near future to a time in our lives, and our lifetimes where some species could be pushed to the point where there were just 100 individuals or less. I thought about that. I felt that some day, even though I didn't have a career in television yet. I hadn't embarked on doing documentaries. I knew that some day in my life, I would revisit that idea of 100 heartbeats. So I think that that article, his work with the inspiration that sent me on this global odyssey both for the book, for Rodale and for the MSNBC documentary.
