Focusing on the black-footed ferret, once declared extinct, the narrative unfolds at a reintroduction site in northern Arizona. Through extensive observation, Lenhart highlights the ferret's role as a vital ecosystem ambassador, amidst threats like habitat loss and disease. He intertwines this conservation journey with personal reflections on his wife's pregnancy, exploring the parallels between nurturing a species and preparing for fatherhood in a changing world. Lenhart's deeper ecological perspective challenges him to balance his environmental commitments with his familial responsibilities.
