Beatrice is a nature+animal enthusiast. She’s hungry for knowledge and passionate about protecting and conserving all animals.
Thank you for generously supporting Beatrice in this year’s competition. Your participation helps empower the National Wildlife Federation in their mission to protect wildlife, restore habitats, and inspire the next generation of conservationists.
Beatrice loves how calming nature can be. She feels at peace in playing down at the creek for hours, catching crawfish, discovering new insects and exploring her surroundings. Beatrice feels connected to nature through her play and exploration.
“This is a tough question bc I have so many favorites. There’s the Paragon Falcon, Proboscis Monkey, Liturgusa Kattorum, Diademed Sifaka, but I guess my favorite wildlife animal would have to be the Resplendent Quetzal, I love their metallic colors+majestic tails. It’s cool how they eat wild avocados whole and spit out the pit and It replants naturally. I hate to think they’re nearly threatened. I would love to teach people about them to conserve this amazing bird+ it’s habitat.”
Beatrice loves all things outdoors! Whether she is out milking our goats, tending to her farm chores, jumping her minidonkey, Jameson, hiking through the forest, or biking, she is most alive outside. One of her biggest passions is fishing. She will fish for HOURS. She has tied her own lures, baited her own hooks, and has taken fish off the hook since she was 5. She loves learning the art of casting, baiting, and of course catching a variety of fish!
