Testimonials

"If you want someone who will draw a crowd and hold them enthralled with her presentation, get Sue Morse. If the Michelin Guide did conservation speakers she'd get four stars. She lives what she speaks and it's clear that she's made a success of it. Her beautiful photographs and the layers of knowledge from the different areas of her expertise are all woven together in her message. The animals are there, they need certain things to make a good neighborhood to live in and your actions can help or hinder their lives. This is not new, what makes it different is two things, her knowledge of what good habitat is and how to facilitate it, and her ability to make the animals come alive for us and become as important to us as we ourselves are. It's the closest thing I can think of to having an animal in the room talking for the animals. We know we live in nature but we often treat it as the background to our human concerns. Sue brings us back to a different perspective, in fact we return to the Garden of Eden, as the stewards we were meant to be."

"Sue Morse has never been one to talk about an environmental problem without trying to find a solution. In 1994, she formed a nonprofit conservation organization called Keeping Track. Its mission is to inspire community participation in the long-term stewardship of wildlife habitat. She believes that one of the best ways to conserve habitat is to learn about the habitat in your community. Keeping Tack teaches concerned adults and children to observe, interpret, and record evidence of wildlife in their region. Wild habitat has a much better chance of staying wild under the watchful eyes of a whole community of knowledgeable and dedicated wildlife enthusiasts."

"You would be giving yourself and your colleagues a great gift to go tracking in the woods with Sue Morse. Sue is more than an expert guide and authority on flora and fauna. She is a wonderful storyteller, and the way she is able to transport you into her world of bobcats, bear, coyote and other friends is nothing short of magic. Through stories, tracks, signs, and occasional sightings their world comes to life. At the end of the day you will feel as if you know them a bit better, as if you have been a privileged guest in their home. And maybe--just maybe--they have gotten a good look at you, too."
