All my life, I have been hugely passionate about nature and all its living creatures.
It therefore touches me very deeply every time I see how we humans treat that beautiful nature and its inhabitants.
With my photorealistic animal portraits in pastel, I try to make people aware of the beauty of all these animals. I try to show people that they are individuals, each with their right to a precious life.
So I did not hesitate for a moment when Invicta Wildlife Fund invited me to participate in their project.
I sincerely hope I can contribute to the amazing work they do!
African Wild Dogs have disappeared from much of their former range. Their population is currently estimated at approximately 6,600 adults in 39 subpopulations, of which only 1,400 are mature individuals. Population size is continuing to decline as a result of ongoing habitat fragmentation, conflict with human activities, and infectious disease. Given uncertainty surrounding population estimates, and the species’ tendency to population fluctuations, the largest subpopulations might well number <250 mature individuals, thereby warranting listing as Endangered under criterion C2a(i).
