Firstly, dedicated conservation photographers have the ability to raise awareness of the plight faced by endangered species and habitats through evocative images that create an emotional connection for viewers. Secondly, wildlife photography is a major driver of the demand for conservation tourism, and as such contributes significantly to the protection of wilderness landscapes. Finally, through citizen science initiatives, photographers are able to contribute to conservation management by sharing their images with research programmes and online atlasing databases.” - Dr. Neil Midlane, Wilderness Safaris https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fee87f750339566e9b48219/e5b6212e-ae6e-4e71-86fd-3224333ea43d/IMG_8988.jpg Events - Introduction to the Competition - Faraaz Abdool Faraaz is a member of the Trinidad and Tobago Bird Status and Distribution Committee (TTBSDC), an acclaimed wildlife photographer, birding guide, safari agent, author of the book ‘Casual Birding in Trinidad and Tobago,’ and the manager of the “Nurturing the Wild” Photo Competition.

By bringing these often-overlooked stories into the public eye, conservation photography makes an important impact to further conservation goals. For the Nurture Nature Campaign, that means supporting new photography on harmful wildlife trades. To learn more about conservation photography, check out these webinars by our expert judges introducing the competition and talking about the ethics of conservation photography, or click the link below. https://www.nurturenaturett.org/ethics-of-conservation-photography daily 0.75 2022-01-25 https://www.nurturenaturett.org/monkeys-are-not-pets daily 0.75 2022-02-12 https://www.nurturenaturett.org/belize-bird-rescue-webinar daily 0.75 2022-05-29 https://www.nurturenaturett.org/wild-animal-keeping-in-tt daily 0.75 2022-04-05 https://www.nurturenaturett.org/share-the-survey daily 0.75 2022-09-16 https://www.nurturenaturett.org/help-guides-for-at-risk-animals daily 0.75 2022-12-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fee87f750339566e9b48219/5fa04215-75c6-4961-bb33-dd209caf38aa/Orange-wing+Amazon+011+%281%29.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fee87f750339566e9b48219/67251a47-9fb9-44ae-a3c2-3b85327b24bd/Boa.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fee87f750339566e9b48219/1624283529371-KO2M59ABW8OZLU27GR0S/Blue%2Band%2Bgold%2Bmacaw%2B098.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fee87f750339566e9b48219/63a65ff7-58ed-4e80-b731-3d807d53d36b/Morrocoy.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fee87f750339566e9b48219/702f8f62-d8ee-42ef-b8fb-3c5156131c13/RES.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fee87f750339566e9b48219/541c3b3e-c2ab-4183-8a7f-ef708863b1a2/Squirrel.jpg https://www.nurturenaturett.org/wildlife-laws daily 0.75 2024-03-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fee87f750339566e9b48219/734c2a54-6eba-48e6-b6bf-958228ec10e4/Untitled+design+%282%29.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fee87f750339566e9b48219/9bcecdae-241a-4d0d-8312-11c42657e482/Website+Images.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fee87f750339566e9b48219/889a710f-9d2b-4c8e-96a2-09d7912d2caf/Website+Images+%281%29.png https://www.nurturenaturett.org/world-wildlife-day-2023 daily 0.75 2023-03-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fee87f750339566e9b48219/0b6ada15-f451-4020-89b4-bce1e1a0f14a/CBS+Online+Webinar+%285%29.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fee87f750339566e9b48219/5f907da6-72b2-4c5b-b8db-01e739686742/WhatsApp+Image+2023-03-03+at+4.29.07+PM.jpeg
