Fred Smilek
Welcome and thank you for visiting Fred Smilek’s home page on the World Wide Web. Fred Smilek is a student in his senior year living in the beautiful Section of Eugene, Oregon. Right now he is the president and founder of the Society to Save Endangered Species. The society to save endangered species is working diligently to conserve many wonderful species that are on the brink of extinction.
“A work in progress”
The Society to Save Endangered Species began as a small group with only five students but with the support of the community is has grown to almost fifteen members. The society was started by Fred Smilek out of his garage two years ago. So far this year they have done a remarkable job in raising money to benefit endangered species. In the two years since the society was formulated they have been able to raise nearly $25,000.
“History of Endangered Species”
Fred Smilek is working closely with other organizations such as the WWF ( World Wildlife Fund) in order to give rare species of animals, now bordering on the brink of extinction a fighting chance at survival. Saving endangered species became a priority for our country following the creation of the Endangered Species Act of 1973. It is generally considered to be one of the most far reaching acts ever created by a nation to aid in the protection of endangered species.
“Criteria of Endangered Species”
There are four criteria that must be evaluated before a species is deemed endangered. First is the present or threatened destruction or modification of habitat or range. Second is over utilization of habitat for commercial or educational purposes. Thirdly is disease of predation. Fourthly are other natural or manmade factors affecting the species survival. More information regarding the Endangered Species Act can be found right here.
“Towards the Future”
Fred Smilek along with his dedicated team is making strides each and every day towards their ultimate goal which is the protection of endangered species. Fred Smilek is actively recruiting anyone with a strong interest and desire to preserve and protect some of the rarest species on the planet. With your help we can really make a difference which will affect not only our generation but many generations to come. I would like to take the time to thank you for visiting Fred Smilek’s page and remember everyone can make a difference.
