To pay tribute to the heroes from among our lesser brothers who have committed acts worthy of respect or raised important topical issues in our society.

​In the special nomination "Responsible for those ...", eco-defenders (public figures, organizations or just citizens) who have distinguished themselves most in the protection of wildlife are noted.

They don't know how to betray.

They don't know what cowardice and meanness are.

Their actions are admired.

And exploits make us remember,

That we are people!

And we are responsible for those who have been tamed!
