Endangered

Endangered is an experiment by award-winning photographer Tim Flach in how and why we connect emotionally to other forms of life through visual imagery. The last of the white rhinos – there are only three left in the world: two females incapable of carrying a child and one male with low sperm count. The majestic swarms of the Monarch Butterly, whose milkweed crops are being destroyed by herbicides. The Lord Howe Island Stick Insect – an extinction success story! Thought to be extinct in 1920 after rats from a wrecked Glaswegian cargo ship made it to shore and caused chaos on Lord Howe Island. A tiny colony of 24 specimens was discovered on the tiny rocky outcrop of Balls Pyramid in 2001 and has now been saved in the Melbourne Zoo. —- ISBN: 9781760760724 | ISBN10: 1760760722 | ISBN-13: 978-1760760724
