EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Nick Garbutt showcases the enchanting beauty of two Sulawesi black macaques, also known as Celebes crested macaques. The juveniles are captured in a woodland setting within Tangkoko National Park, located in the northern region of Sulawesi, Indonesia. These remarkable creatures are critically endangered, making this image all the more precious. As members of the primate family and old world monkeys specifically, they belong to the Macaca nigra species. Their striking black coloration contrasts against their surroundings, emphasizing their unique presence in this biodiversity hotspot. The composition of this portrait highlights both curiosity and humor as these young animals stand side by side with a direct gaze towards the camera lens. Their expressive eyes make an immediate connection with anyone who beholds them. Tangkoko National Park serves as a sanctuary for these endangered macaques and many other rare species that call Sulawesi home. This island is part of Wallacea, an area renowned for its endemic wildlife found nowhere else on Earth. By showcasing this photograph, we hope to raise awareness about the importance of protecting these magnificent creatures and their fragile habitat. The conservation efforts undertaken at Tangkoko National Park play a crucial role in safeguarding not only these crested black macaques but also countless other species that rely on this forest ecosystem. Let us cherish this moment frozen in time—a testament to nature's wonders—and be inspired to take action towards preserving our planet's rich biodiversity for generations to come.
