EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Ken Findlay from Universal Images Group (UIG), we are granted a rare glimpse into the world of the Rock Hyrax. The image showcases a side view of this fascinating creature as it sits gracefully atop a rugged rock in South Africa's untamed wilderness. The Rock Hyrax, also known as Dassie or Procavia capensis, is an intriguing member of the hyracoidea family. Resembling a small rabbit with its stout body and short limbs, it possesses unique features that set it apart from other mammals. Its large eyes and ears allow for excellent sensory perception, while its sharp claws enable effortless navigation across rocky terrains. Hermanus, the location where this photograph was taken, serves as an ideal habitat for these remarkable creatures. With its diverse wildlife and breathtaking landscapes, it provides them with ample opportunities to thrive amidst nature's wonders. As we admire this image, we can't help but marvel at the Rock Hyrax's ability to adapt to such harsh environments. Its presence on the rock symbolizes resilience and determination in overcoming life's challenges. Ken Findlay has masterfully captured not only the physical beauty of this animal but also its essence – a testament to his skillful eye for detail and passion for wildlife photography. This print serves as a reminder of our planet's incredible biodiversity and encourages us to appreciate and protect these magnificent creatures that share our world.
