Myles Traphagen is the ultimate champion for migrant rights: for insects, animals and humans. He is a recognized advocate for the conservation and protection of our ecology in the face of human-created devastation. Myles is consistently cited to and quoted by numerous media organizations when it comes to the negative impact of the border wall on the natural environment on the U.S./Mexico border. As the Borderlands Program Coordinator for the Wildlands Network, Myles is the foremost expert on the borderlands region with a focus on channeling collaborative efforts to maintain and restore habitat for species like jaguar, black bear and Sonoran pronghorn. His critical research has documented dramatic reductions in wildlife crossings through border walls compared to vehicle barriers and highlights the urgent need for mitigation strategies to preserve biodiversity and restore wildlife connectivity in the region. He is an important voice against the border wall and other human-made barriers.
Myles also serves as an important advocate for the rights of migrants who travel through the Southwest border and speaks about his experiences in assisting them. His perspective is extremely important and he embodies the MLK, Jr. quote: "let's build bridges, not walls." Please join me and listen to Myles' story and his unique experiences working on the border for the common good.
