Some great images Eric! Speaking of species conservation, we met a former park ranger in Botswana and he said they now shoot to kill when they see a poacher. Unfortunately since that policy started a few years ago poaching has increased!

There is a serious war going on and animals are losing.

Poaching is such a big business and too often unfortunately some of the people involved are insiders within the organizations designed to protect and defend wildlife. And yes, shooting to kill while on the surface seems a bit aggressive is at least a policy that may get someone to think twice about going after eles, rhinos and pangolins.

Super images from your super set, Eric. Fantastic. We do need to do better, if we want our descendants to see what the world has to offer.

Thanks Rex....we are much too short sighted and self absorbed to really consider the impact we have on the environment....inevitably we, sooner or later, will be the architects of our own demise.

My hats off to you, Eric - what a superb collection of excellent images! At the same time, they make us aware that we need to do something more to help them survive in their fragile environment. Sometimes, we can't help but feeling helpless
