A 94-Year-Old's Urgent Message from the Frontlines of Extinction

What do you do when you've spent more time in Earth's wild places than perhaps any other human and watched them disappear before your eyes? At 94, David Attenborough isn't offering gentle reminiscences-he's sounding an alarm. His witness statement carries weight that few possess: seven decades of footage showing what we've lost, what remains, and what hangs in the balance. When someone who has held infant gorillas, swum with whales, and walked through forests now reduced to monocultures tells you we're in trouble, you listen. This isn't speculation or modeling-it's testimony from someone who remembers when the Serengeti seemed endless, when coral reefs blazed with color, and when the idea that humans could threaten something as vast as an ocean seemed absurd. Picture an 11-year-old cycling through Leicester's countryside in 1937, splitting limestone rocks to reveal ammonite fossils-ancient sea creatures untouched for millions of years. That child became television's most trusted guide to the natural world, but only by accident. When Attenborough joined the BBC in the 1950s, wildlife programming meant placing zoo animals on tables with doormats beneath them. Frustrated, he traveled to Sierra Leone to film creatures in their actual homes. His first African expedition in 1960 revealed Serengeti plains so vast that a million wildebeest could disappear into them. It seemed impossible that humans could threaten such immensity. We did anyway. What he's witnessed should terrify us. What he proposes should give us hope.
