All means of protecting the Saimaa ringed seal are necessary. Thanks to decades of conservation efforts, the seal population has gradually risen from 150 to 360 individuals.
“The Saimaa ringed seal remains highly endangered,” says Tolvanen. “The official interim goal is 400 seals by the year 2025. Then extinction would no longer be an immediate threat, but even that is in no way adequate.”

Emily is an established artist whose work has won numerous international art awards, been featured in magazines, and exhibited in galleries such as the Louvre. She has painted murals in Australia, Finland, Spain, Costa Rica and Canada. In 2018 and 2020, her murals were awarded as the top ten murals in Montreal.
Proof that one person truly is capable of making a positive difference in the world, Emily has been on a mission to find stories of individuals successfully saving endangered animals. In a world full of turmoil, the tranquil essence that drifts through Emily’s artwork is a welcome salve for broken hearts and troubled minds.
An allegiance to nature is the thread that runs through all of Emily’s work. A world traveler and explorer, she has developed her palette to incorporate a wide range of colours and textures that represent Earth’s cultural and natural diversity.
Emily’s artistic style is a melding and welding of her inborn talent for realism and detail combined with the freedom and spontaneity imposed through her experience doing street art.
The result is a trance-like experience that stuns in its meticulous precision and caresses the heart with its messages of hope and unity
