My photographs attempt to show critically endangered species co-existing with indigenous human communities in far corners of the world.  Unfortunately, much of the world has exterminated its large wildlife when it has been unsuccessful at mass breeding these animals for food or industry.  In rare instances, people in select regions of the globe have managed to maintain symbiotic relationships with their wildlife.
