EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic Barasingha deer, also known as Cervus duvaucelii. Native to India and Nepal, this magnificent creature's natural habitat lies in the grasslands near rivers. However, due to extensive drainage and development of floodplains, their once abundant homes have diminished significantly. The unfortunate combination of habitat loss and rampant hunting has led to a decline in Barasingha deer populations across various regions of India. Recognizing the urgent need for conservation efforts, the Indian government has granted protected status to these remarkable animals under national law. This recognition highlights their significance not only within Indian fauna but also on a global scale. In this breathtaking photograph captured by Science Photo Library, we are treated to an intimate glimpse into the world of this endangered species. With its head turned gracefully towards us, we witness a side view that reveals every intricate detail of its beautiful face – a testament to nature's artistry. Let this image serve as a poignant reminder of our responsibility to protect and preserve these vulnerable creatures for future generations. As we admire the biological wonder that is the Barasingha deer through this lens, may it inspire us all to take action towards safeguarding our precious wildlife heritage from further threats posed by human activities.
