The Extinction Project
A comic and poignant multimedia examination of the disappearance of people, species, and places
A man returns to his native North Florida to search for his childhood home, and aging botanist, and an endangered tree. A lonely bachelor discovers a live dodo in his basement. A symphony conductor and drag queen resurrect the American passenger pigeon with music. Combining original work, non-fiction, and interviews, The Extinction Project examines the disappearance of species, places, people, and ways of living in the South and beyond.
