Such a shame that we humans can not protect these beautiful creatures, we would rather hunt them and destroy their habitat. I think often of God with a tear in his eye as we wipe out one of his creations after another.Tammy Espino June 09, 2011

A remarkable capture of a remarkable animal, Kathy! Really beautiful - those blue eyes are incredible and they are looking straight at you! Magnificent, my friend! I cannot believe that there are only 40 of them left in the wild. Where do they reside? #9453017Renee Doyle June 10, 2011

Talk about a riveting gaze - super eye contact here, Kathy, made all the more so by those astonishing blue eyes...what a magnificent animal and a superb capture of this sadly diminishing species....it's shameful - it truly is. I hope there is work being done to proliferate the species and bring these wonderful animals back from near extinction. #9456570Ellen Hodges June 12, 2011
