Symmetry in the Jungle - a herd of Blackbucks in transit at Blackbuck National Park, Velavadar, Gujarat - India

[Abhishek Sharma]

Blackbucks, once found in abundance across the Indian sub-continent are now highly endangered as their habitat of dry grasslands have perished. A small handful of these habitats are now protected where these antelopes are the flagship species.

 

It was a delight to photograph this large herd at Velavadar in Gujarat a few years ago.
