the Photojournalist Who is Dedicated to Saving the Most Vulnerable Animals on Our Planet

The disturbing state of our environment is bound to alarm anyone who cares about the

continued existence of life on this planet. It has been forecast that the oceans will be devoid of life by the year 2048, due to a combination of overfishing and the impact of plastic pollution. An astounding 58 percent of the planet’s wildlife has disappeared over the past forty-two years alone. Earth is in the midst of its sixth mass extinction event.

However, issues such as animal cruelty, deforestation, and species loss may seem remote and irrelevant to our lives. Surrounded by our own day-to-day concerns, it is easy for us to slip into apathy when it comes to the seemingly insurmountable problems that threaten life on Earth as we know it. Luckily, this sense of apathy often falls away when we are confronted with an image, portrait, or documentary that sheds light on the true extent of the problem. This is why it is so important for us to pay close attention to the work of pioneering artists, filmmakers, and photographers who focus on environmental and animal rights issues.

One award-winning photojournalist named Paul Hilton has shown a truly incredible sense of dedication to saving our planet’s most vulnerable animal species and natural habitats.
