Land of Giants

Deep in the heart of a vast wilderness, some of the rarest creatures on Earth still roam; living relics from a bygone era, they are the last of Africa's great tuskers. For the first time these elusive elephants have been subject to an in-depth photographic study and are now immortalised in this book.

Will Burrard-Lucas, in partnership with Tsavo Trust and Kenya Wildlife Service, spent months photographing elephants in all corners of the Tsavo Conservation Area. Using the latest technology including his innovative remote-control BeetleCam, Burrard-Lucas has captured an intimate glimpse into the lives of Tsavo's elephants and a spectacular photographic record of some remarkable individuals.

Against a backdrop of escalating human-wildlife conflict and the ever-present threat of poaching, this book brings a message of hope: that these giants are still out there - and they can still be saved.

Adanc in inima unei pustii vaste, unele dintre cele mai rare creaturi de pe Pamant inca ratacesc; moaste vii dintr-o epoca trecuta, acestea sunt ultimele dintre marile tuskere din Africa. Pentru prima data, acesti elefanti evazivi au fost supusi unui studiu fotografic aprofundat si sunt acum imortalizati in aceasta carte. Will Burrard-Lucas, in parteneriat cu Tsavo Trust si Kenya Wildlife Service, a petrecut luni intregi fotografiind elefanti in toate colturile Tsavo Zona de conservare.
