An Amazonian manatee which is in rehabilitation after sustaining injuries from hunting

An Amazonian manatee which is in rehabilitation after sustaining injuries from hunting and fishing nets peers out of the water at the Center of Amazonian Manatees at Amana Lake in Maraa, Amazonas state, Brazil, September 19, 2015. The Amazonian manatee is relatively easy to hunt, and is threatened as a result. It is also at risk from pollution, accidental drowning in commercial fishing nets, and the degradation of vegetation by soil erosion resulting from deforestation, according to the Center of Amazonian Manatees.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we catch a glimpse of an Amazonian manatee as it peers out of the water at the Center of Amazonian Manatees in Maraa, Brazil. This gentle giant is currently undergoing rehabilitation after sustaining injuries from hunting and fishing nets. The image beautifully captures the serene and detailed features of this wild animal, highlighting its unique nose and instinctual nature. The vulnerability of the Amazonian manatee is evident in this photograph, as it faces numerous threats including pollution, accidental drowning in commercial fishing nets, and habitat degradation due to deforestation. The picture offers a close-up view of the manatee submerged in the water, emphasizing its solitary existence within its natural environment. With no people present in the frame, we are able to appreciate the picturesque beauty of this wildlife sanctuary. The aerial view showcases the vastness of Amana Lake while also drawing attention to the importance of preserving such ecosystems for these magnificent creatures. Bruno Kelly's creative use of composition allows us to see through the eyes of this remarkable creature and gain a deeper understanding of its world. As we admire this stunning image captured on September 19th, 2015, let it serve as a reminder that protecting our environment is crucial for ensuring that future generations can continue to witness such breathtaking scenes firsthand.
