EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Eric Woods from EyeUbiquitous, we are transported to the lush landscapes of The Gambia in West Africa. The image showcases a Nile monitor lizard, scientifically known as Varnus niloticus, amidst a dense copse at the edge of a vibrant forest. However, what truly captures our attention is the unexpected and slightly unsettling detail - a tick embedded into the reptile's neck. The photograph offers us a glimpse into the intricate relationship between animals and their environment. As we observe this majestic creature with its scaly skin and piercing eyes, it reminds us of nature's delicate balance and the challenges that wildlife face daily. The presence of the tick serves as a reminder that even in seemingly idyllic settings like this one, there can be hidden dangers lurking beneath the surface. It prompts us to reflect on how parasites can impact both human and animal populations alike. Eric Woods skillfully captures this moment frozen in time, allowing viewers to appreciate not only the beauty of The Gambia but also its complex ecosystem. Through his lens, he invites us to contemplate our own place within nature's tapestry and encourages us to protect these invaluable habitats for future generations.
