I’m excited to announce that my new book is now available online and in bookstores around the world! It is titled “Top Wildlife Sites of the World” and features 32 of my favourite wildlife destinations.
This is a hardcover, coffee table book with 240 pages, featuring 360 beautiful images. It has been almost 10 years in the making, starting with my visit to Peru’s Manú National Park in 2006, right up to my Yellowstone and Grand Teton trip last year.
My wife, Natalie, is a brilliant writer and has joined me on many of my trips. She wrote the text for this book during her maternity leave – more on that in my 2015 in Review post!
Around 85% of the photographs in the book are mine. I have filled the holes in my image library with some fantastic shots from my friends. In particular, I would like to thank my brother, Matt, and fellow wildlife photographers Richard Peters and Elliott Neep. My friend Rebecca Jackrel (from the Ethiopian Wolf Project) also contributed a selection of beautiful images to the book. Sadly, Rebecca passed away before the book went to press but her passion and spirit live on through her images. You can read my tribute to Rebecca here.
In the book, I have included a variety of destinations across every continent, from the most famous wildlife hotspots such as the Serengeti, to off the beaten track locations such as Kalimantan in Borneo. I hope the book inspires people to visit some of these incredible places; many of them are threatened and tourism revenue is often a critical component of the conservation efforts.
Top Wildlife Sites of the World is now available to buy via Amazon.co.uk and Amazon.com. If you buy from Amazon, we would be really grateful if you can leave an honest review! Signed copies of the book can be purchased from my online store, although I’m afraid they are a bit more expensive due to the extra logistics involved.
