The Selous Game Reserve in southern Tanzania is Africa's oldest and
largest protected area. Proclaimed in 1896 and bigger than
Switzerland, the Selous is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Selous
remains one of Africa's largest and greatest undisturbed
ecosystems, teeming with life including one of the two largest
elephant populations remaining on the African continent, probably
half of all of the wild dogs in Africa, vast herds of buffalo as
well as more lions than any other protected area on the continent
as reported by National Geographic in August 2013. The game reserve
is becoming more important by the day as the pressure on elephants
and other species grows - problems that are addressed here in this
book. New York-born photographer Rob Ross has spent much of the
past four years photographing in this vast and difficult to access
reserve. He has compiled more than 100,000 images showing all
aspects of the reserves varied landscapes, seasons, flora and large
and small fauna.The spectacular large-format photography book
features a selection of the very best images including landscapes,
wildlife portraits and behaviour, night photography, impressionist
style work and breath-taking aerials.
