Patricia Wright worked in Madagascar for most of her career. She is a primatologist, and in her presence in Madagascar she has found two new species of lemurs, which caused her to be a part of the creation of the Ranomafana National Park. Ranomafana National Park is a World Heritage site located in the southeastern part of Madagascar and it scales to be 106,000 acres. But a politician, Andry Rajoelina, once again started to allow the destruction of the forests of madagascar. There were increased illegal activities, destroying the integerity of the forest and its popuolation, and decreasing tourism. Tourism is Madagascar's main source of economy, and when that dimished so did the well-being of the human population. With Patrica Wright and several other scientists had a small effect on the country to make madgascar have a ban on illegal shipping and cutting of rare woods, but in the end there is still illegal activity. "This is not just Madagascar's problem. There are forests everywhere that are threatened. If we don't take this seriously, we're going to have big problems in the future with climate change, loss of biodiversity. This is supposedly the year of biodiversity, yet we're finding that the world's conservation agencies haven't fulfilled their promise. We haven't been able to stop loss of biodiversity by 2010. So I think we need to revisit these old issues in a more realistic way. It's time for these agencies to join together to make a plan that governments of the world take seriously."-Patrica Wright.
