Travis is quoted several times. The article helps you understand just
what this means to Travis, professionally and personally.

'For now, the race is on to protect the heart of the ferret population.
Mr. Livieri, often working by himself, drives from his home in
Wellington, Colo., six hours away, and spends a week or two at a time
scouring the prairie all night in hopes of injecting all of the
ferrets. ... "You feel helpless when a disease like this comes in and
threatens everything you worked for," Mr. Livieri said. "That's why I
am going to be out here spotlighting, doing what I can."'
