Come face to face with our vanishing wildlife. Using unique Photicular technology, Wild brings to vivid life the animals who are under threat of extinction. It turns abstract numbers and names into touching and unforgettable images.
From the cover panda, lazily munching on leaves, to an albatross swooping its magnificent wings, to the hovering bumblebee, among the most critical of threatened animals in terms of its effect on the global food supply, Wild captures eight endangered animals in living motion. We see gorillas at play, a rhinoceros and its baby trotting across the savanna, a pangolin skittering along the landscape, an elephant bathing in a river.
An opening essay explores the environmental and economic threats to animal populations and how conservationists are working to slowâand when they can, reverseâthe damage. Profiles of each animal accompany the images.
Wild joins four other books in the Photicular seriesâSafari, Ocean, Polar, and Jungle.
