Having tweaked Austin American-Statesman environmental reporter Asher Price for his reportorial principals in my post a few days ago, I think it only fair that I now cknowledge and bring attention to his profile on Padre Island’s Tony Amos.A beach-combing, self-taught biologist, Amos is on a 35-year mission to protect loggerhead turtles, migratory birds and the beach from pollution, man, changing weather patterns and a whole host of other threats.  It’s a 24-hour job, as Asher describes in the story when Amos conducts a 1 a.m rescue mission of a loggerhead turtle on Goose Island.As I mentioned in my previous post, Asher has a passion for environmental issues and his story today about Amos is an excellent example of that passion. And it’s a story that I’m glad he told. Amos’ work as part of Animal Rehabilitation Keep and his energy and dedication to protecting Padre Island is a laudable commitment, and one I personally appreciate.One of my family’s favorite vacation trips has been to Sea Turtle, Inc., on South Padre Island, where injured Kemp’s Ridley Sea Turtles are rescued, rehabilitated and released into the wild to ensure they continue to repopulate the island.  You can learn more by follwing this link: www.seaturtleinc.org
