All the King’s Animals

A century ago, Swaziland was replete with wild animals, such as impalas, elephants, rhinoceroses, hippopotamuses, and lions. Over the years, poaching, hunting, farming, disease, and overpopulation annihilated these and other creatures in this South African country. However, during the past thirty years, one man has led the effort to successfully return wildlife to Swaziland. Author-photographer Cristina Kessler documents the inspiring work of conservationist Ted Reilly.
