Ruler of the night...

As the dark takes over the light, comes alive the ruler of the night.

Dominant male of Lake Nakuru National park on a lookout for prey at late evening hours during our recently concluded migration circuit at Kenya. If you want to see the true menace that a lion is, you should see them at night.

What is termed as bad light by many is actually quite amazing for making really moody images.

Gentle giants...

It was in our part of the world yesterday and the rest of the world is celebrating it today.

Across the world, tons of illegal (confiscated) rhino horns and elephant tusks are incinerated every year (like the state of Assam did yesterday) in an attempt to discourage the trade and make a statement that we are very serious about the issue and still the issue of illegal hunting for horns/tusks hardly subsides.

My question to the authorities is: Wouldn't it be more logical to actually flood the black markets with illegal horns/ivory and then track it to the source seller/buyer to break the nexus and hit them where it really matters?
Sure you destroyed the bounty, but how does it discourage them from going after the live animals when the masters of the trade don't care of the lives lost in the process of obtaining the bounty??

A genuine question, I've been wanting to ask for a long time...
Food for thought for everyone concerned.

In image is a very gentle rhino photographed at Manas a couple of years back with whom I had a once in a lifetime experience of being so close to it for a long time.

Follow me for more images, anecdotes and ideas from the wild. Do keep the lost rhinos in your thought today...
