The concept of the “Big Five” originally described challenging animals to hunt in Africa, but now British photographer Graeme Green has introduced a new take with the global “New Big Five” for wildlife photography. These new iconic animals include the elephant, polar bear, lion, gorilla, and tiger, as determined by a global vote of 50,000 individuals.
“The New Big 5” photography book, releasing this week, showcases stunning images of these animals captured by renowned photographers like Ami Vitale and Steve McCurry. The book also features essays from leading conservationists, emphasizing the urgent need for action on wildlife conservation.
Green’s vision for the project was inspired by a desire to promote wildlife protection through photography, encouraging people to appreciate and conserve at-risk species. The book, which took nearly two years to curate, aims to raise awareness about habitat loss, poaching, pollution, and climate change impacting wildlife globally.
With around one million species facing extinction, the “New Big 5” serves as a poignant reminder of the biodiversity crisis we face. The book not only highlights the threats but also explores solutions like rewilding and the role of indigenous communities in conservation efforts.
Endangered species like bees and blue whales also feature in the book, underscoring the grave consequences of climate change on wildlife beyond the “New Big 5.” Renowned primatologist Jane Goodall, who contributed to the book, emphasizes the need for immediate collective action to restore our planet’s natural balance.
“The New Big 5: A Global Photography Project For Endangered Wildlife” by Graeme Green is set to release on April 4, 2023, offering a visually stunning and informative journey into the worlds of these iconic species. Get your hands on this captivating book and join the movement to preserve wildlife for future generations to appreciate and enjoy.
