"The Wild Balance: A Coyote's Pursuit." This powerful photo series captures a raw moment in nature as a coyote goes after a vulnerable baby pronghorn. The chase unfolds - one animal running for its life, the other for survival. The final 2 images, where the coyote succeeds in its hunt, is a sobering reminder of the harsh realities of life in the wild. While difficult to witness, it’s a testament to the predator-prey balance that defines ecosystems like this one.

This is one of my favorite photos from Botswana. There was a black jackal den located in an open sandy area by camp. Our first group enjoyed watching the adults and 8 babies playing on a couple occasions. By the time we returned several days later with the second group, the den was empty and the jackals had moved on. The reason for this was that there was a mating pair of lions for several days in the area that came way too close to the jackal den along with several other pride lionesses and youngsters that showed up right before our first group left. I was bummed that the second group might not see the baby jackals. We looked for them to no avail. Then one day, my photography group spotted 3 adult jackals in an area so we decided we’d watch them for a while and see if they led us to their new den and sure enough, they did! The babies were all there and came out of this dead log once the parents arrived. After most of them were out and about, one of the adults went back in presumably to check to make sure everyone was out and I told our guide to stop and for my group to get ready for this shot. It was so perfect, a beautiful jackal emerging from a beautiful dead log and in almost perfect light. Patience and persistence certainly paid off this time around.
