EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a serene moment at the African Fund for Endangered Wildlife Giraffe Centre, located just 14 kilometers from Nairobi. In this image, a group of majestic giraffes can be seen leisurely browsing in the fading light of dusk. However, what makes this scene particularly poignant is the absence of any tourists to witness it. Taken on October 23,2001, during a time when Kenya's tourism industry was experiencing a significant decline following the September 11 attacks on the United States. The impact was felt across various sectors, with companies like Kenya Airways reporting substantial losses amounting to $442,800 in just seven weeks. The image serves as a reminder of how global events can have far-reaching consequences beyond their immediate scope. It highlights the vulnerability and interconnectedness of economies worldwide and underscores the profound effect that external factors can have on local industries. Despite these challenges, there is an undeniable beauty in witnessing these graceful creatures roam freely against an idyllic backdrop. This photograph encapsulates both resilience and hope – reminding us that even amidst adversity, nature continues its course undeterred. Captured by George Mulala for Reuters Images (GMM/GB), this powerful image stands as a testament to our collective responsibility in preserving endangered species and supporting communities reliant on tourism for their livelihoods.
