Endangered, Tim Flach

For most of us, endangered animals are a far-away mystery. British photographer Tim Flach, however, has spent the last 2 years braving their habitats and documenting their fragile existences. The resulting body of work, Endangered, provides us with an intimate and rare view into the beautiful lives of Earth's most threatened creatures, and reminds us of everything we should be afraid to lose. From species we're all familiar with to exotic beasts we'd only imagine in fantasy films, Flach presents a wide spectrum of biodiversity with Endangered.
