This South African student is fighting animal poaching using wildlife photos


 It's a shocking image: A huge rhinoceros pinned to the ground while a grimacing man shreds a power saw through its horn, white shards บาคาร่าฟรี shooting off in a blur of high speed.

The photograph, taken by 20-year-old student Neville Kgaugelo Ngomane, shows the radical lengths that are now being taken to protect เล่นบาคาร่าฟรี vulnerable rhinos from the poachers who hunt them down for their horns.

Though it seems cruel, this is now a standard practice in some parts of Africa to keep rhinos alive. Robbed of the horns that fetch high prices in illegal trade, the rhinos will be left alone.

The dramatic photo won Ngomane the Young แทงบอลฟรี Environmental Photographer of the Year Award in the International Chartered Institute of Water and Environmental Management (CIWEM) photography competition in September.

Out of more than 4,000 entries for the competition, Ngomane's titled "Desperate Measures" was picked by judges alongside thirteen แจกเครดิตแทงบอลฟรี others as winners for the competition.

Ngomane, born in Mpumalanga, in eastern South Africa, said the rhino dehorning was "not easy to watch," but he hopes the graphic image รูเล็ตฟรี will contribute to the preservation of these powerful beasts.

"I wanted to use the photo to show people that they should stop poaching, to be aware of its dangers," he says. "And I became so excited เว็บคาสิโนที่ดีที่สุด when I heard that I had won. To be picked among more than 4000 entries, it is a big deal."

Poaching is a serious business in South Africa. In 2018, there were a total of 1,873 poaching incidents in different parks across the country, according to a report from South Africa's Department of Environment Affairs.

As a child, Ngomane spent a lot of his time watching documentaries about wildlife conservation.
