Everyone wants to experience the things they witness in photographs, but the goal is to find a responsible
foundation that truly cares for the animals and not merely involved in tourist attractions. Research and
education, along with images that relay the truth are the most crucial factors behind these types of
conservation efforts.
In conclusion, conservation photography plays a significant role in preserving the biodiversity of this planet,
although some negative effects can be found throughout it. The goal is to educate the truth. Photographs can
communicate on an emotional level that evokes the drive to take action. Although, it has been around for quite
some time, its efforts are just now being brought into view. With the right eyesight and the provision of
resources, photography can help save the place we all call home.
