  • A bushfire in Serengeti NP, Tanzania. Many fires in Serengeti are started by park authorities or poachers. After the rain on a burnt area the grass gets really green and attracts a lot of animals. © Daniel Rosengren
  • A man who likes to be anonymous shows how the gold is melted in a special oven connected to a vacuum cleaner with a certain filter to absorb the fumes from the mercury. Puerto Maldonado, Peru. © Daniel Rosengren

  • Gold sold in a shop in Puerto Maldonado, Peru. The man thought I was a tourist and let me take these photos of an otherwise very sensitive topic (since a large part of the gold industry is illegal). The price was 125.43 Peruvian Soles per gram. The man offered me to buy at a good price so I could resell and make my own money in Europe. © Daniel Rosengren

  • People extracting gold from the River Madre de Dios, just outside of Boca Colorado, Peru. Water and the bottom sand is dredged and filtered to extract the gold. Mercury is used to extract the gold from the filtering carpets. This is of course an environmental disaster where the geology of areas is abused and the environment poisoned. Each gold miner may be on a small scale, but since there are so many of them, the damage is very large scale. © Daniel Rosengren

  • A dead and dried out male Saiga found in Kazakhstan. A possible bullet hole found in the skin and a broken leg might indicate that this one has been poached. In that case, the poachers might have shot several saigas at once and lost track of this one (why it still has its horns). © Daniel Rosengren
