Photographer Spends 2 Years Photographing Animals That May Soon Be Extinct, And It Breaks Our Hearts

I feel like it's staring into my soul... in a good way

I want to cry....

Love that he can have different hairstyles for day/night.

Beautiful.

dem eyelashes

Those eyes.....<3

Snow leopards are not longer “endangered“, btw klassisches into “vulnerable“. A heartfelt Thanks to all the conservationists around the world <3

The first time I saw a cheetah was a female with cubs, surrounded by safari vehicles. The thrill was real but it was kinda sad too

Um the one on the left is a Crowned Sifaka

Awww I love pangolins :(

are they coming out of the eggs with numbers on their back? :D

I WANNA SLAP THAT POPSICLE OF ADORABLENESS OFF THAT ENDANGERED LIST

There used to be so many of them when I was a kid. It's been so long since I last saw one :(

Wait, since when are they rare?

Nooooooo!!!!!!

wait I didn't know they were endangered. they're awesome.

I remember chasing them when I was young. But I haven't seen any in a LONG time.

I’m actually surprised fire flies are on here, where I live there are very many of them. But every animal deserves to be conserved

We have A LOT of fireflies, in the summer time. (Europe, Adriatic Sea)

They make a summer evening magical... but they're pretty much locally extinct now, where I grew up.

Like this

I'm afraid they're going the way of amphibians and some species of bats!! Their habitat is being destroyed by us, so their food supply is gone and their breeding sites too and they become more vulnerable to disease.

nooooooooooooooooo........my childhood....i'm 13 and i still catch them......

Ow there used to be so many it was awesome 30 yrs ago. In Maryland where I live, still see them but few and far between. I guess because ppl don't like mosguitos and they spray.

oh look 10 million fireflies

Really?!

Haven't seen these in years. Remember catching them as a kid.

I think fireflys and lightning bugs are different.

I see them in my yard, Connecticut

Same with Christmas beetles in Australia. As a kid, they were everywhere. It’s been years since I saw one.

I remember holding them in rubber plantations when I was a kid. When I went back my grandma's place after 5 years there were hardly any :(

No way I never knew hippos are becoming extinct 😱 nooooo!

Ok I am going to move to where ever these animals reside and buy a huge piece of land and keep them all safe with me!

So elegant

that hair! so majestic!

Yoda? Is that you?

Beautiful never heard of them

Such an intelligent look. :p

only one left :(

So beautiful

Read an article not long ago that showed the numbers on honeybees is actually making a substantial comeback. This is a GOOD thing... No bees, no food.

Me in the morning

They were extinct in the wild but have been successfully captive bred and reintroduced.

So majestic, and wise looking.

we are the last generation who can see this

please be kidding me not these too

That looks like Trump. Nevermind, that's an insult to this Monkey.

Amazing :) Stay please

named for the k**b on its snout - ghara as in "mud pot"

Don't leave us Kermit!!!!!

The scimitar-horned oryx. They were extinct in the wild but captive breeding programmes have been successful enough to reintroduce them in selected protected locations.
