Who are our rhetors?
"...a rhetorical situation is a situation where a speaker or writer sees a need to change reality and sees that the change may be effected through rhetorical discourse." - Grant-Davie, 265

To put it simply, there are many rhetors involved in the creation of Fox Protection International.

In particular, there are two individuals at the head of the organization's maintenance; Mikalah Singer, the executive director, and Kaitlin Murphy, the science associate. Singer is both highly educated on science and animal law as a whole, and deeply involved in multiple projects in regards to helping the environment, with FPI being one of them. Murphy is striving for a doctorate in the field of veterinary medicine, while also possessing years of educational knowledge and licenses that, much like Singer and her own plethora of credentials, she uses in contribution to this organization. There are also two collaborating organizations interlinked with FPI, those being The Canid Project and Fox Guardians UK. As their names imply, they are two other groups that share a goal with Fox Protection International, which is self-explanatory.

All parties involved have an innate passion for the environment, all having obviously seen, "...a need to change reality... (Grant Davie, 265)", hence the reason for both their creation and subsequent collaboration. In terms of their discourse, most of it falls under education; the FPI website is filled with all sorts of informational articles all written by different advocates, who could all also be considered rhetors in and of themselves for their many contributions. Either way, there appears to be a great sum of individuals who strive to maintain the foxes of the world to ensure natural equilibrium is maintained for as long as it can be.
