The Jungle at the Door
Baby Elephant
14.5 x 22″, Epson HDR inks on Innova Paper
“Kipling’s jungle from the Just So Stores of my childhood is rapidly vanishing, and with it the spectacularly beautiful birds, deer, elephants (both wild and tame), monkeys, rhinoceros, and wild boar. Wildlife refuges have helped slow the decline, but their borders are easily breached by poachers, and India’s expanding population needs roads and services. In losing the tiger and the jungle, we lose part of the primitive and mysterious wildness that has long been part of our human psyche.”

“Through the miracle of photography and the beholding eye of a master photographer such as Myers, we are able to experience the land and life in India’s last remaining wild jungles. This is the land of the tiger and elephant and monkey and rhino and a treasure trove of other species. But, as noted writer William deBuys shares in his provocative essay, poaching is a persistent and pervasive problem, and the natural habitat for wild animals is shrinking at an alarming rate due to expanding development and industrialization.” — GTF
