Bee Elle, The Natural World (Documentary/Photojournalism)

A series of photographs of African wildlife whose existence is compromised by a score of human activities including human-wildlife conflict, legal and illegal poaching and habitat loss. While these creatures may be iconic to the African continent, efforts to protect them remain limited and possibly inadequate to save the species depicted, and other species from extinction. More contextual information regarding each photograph is available upon request.
