Human existence is dependent upon the elements of nature, however, nature can exist without humans. Snipe Clan people have always been conscious of this relationship, and firmly believe society has a responsibility towards the care of the environment. To them the earth, Mother Earth, is alive. She deserves compassion and respect. This is the reason the Snipe Clan remains a valuable asset in the world today.
