EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant portrait, Nabire, a Northern white rhinoceros (Ceratotherium simum cottoni), gazes intently at the camera with her expressive eyes, her massive horns curving gracefully above her head. Taken just one week before her tragic death on July 27, 2015, at the Dvur Kralove Zoo in the Czech Republic, this image serves as a poignant reminder of the plight of this critically endangered species, which is heading towards extinction. With only five Northern white rhinos remaining on Earth, Nabire was one of the last representatives of her kind. Her death was a significant loss for the global conservation community, and her image serves as a powerful symbol of the urgent need to protect endangered species and their habitats. The Northern white rhinoceros, also known as the square-lipped rhinoceros, is a large, horned mammal native to Central Africa. Once widespread across the continent, their numbers have been decimated by poaching and habitat loss. The species is now critically endangered, and efforts to save them from extinction have focused on breeding programs in captivity. This portrait of Nabire, taken against a black background, captures the intricate details of her textured skin and the unique shape of her horns. The close-up perspective and side view offer a unique perspective on this magnificent animal, highlighting the beauty and power of this rare and endangered pachyderm. Despite the sadness that comes with knowing that Nabire is no longer with us, her image serves as a reminder of the importance of conservation efforts and the need to protect endangered species before it's too late. This portrait is a testament to the power of photography to capture the essence of a creature and to raise awareness about the threats facing it in the wild.
