Bad luck for the Great Auk, the penguin of the North Atlantic. In 1844 it got extinct due to us, Homo sapiens. Bad luck not only for the Auk, bad luck also for us! We will never again be able to enjoy and admire this beautiful bird. The process of extinction goes on; locally, regionally and globally.
ALKA Wildlife, a Czech based European wide acting NGO, is one amongst several efforts to stem against this trend which makes our planet, our future and our hearts more lonely and sad.
Our mission: Raising awareness. We chose the Great Auk to transport it. The extinction of this fascinating bird happened in Europe due to Europeans.
Our craft: Science based knowledge. We develop and apply newest technologies in field ecology to better understand our environment, to understand, what is going on.
