Caught in the Clouds - The Andean Bear's Perfect Hideaway!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print by Lucas Bustamante, we witness a rare and enchanting moment high up in the Ecuadorian Choco. Resting peacefully on a sturdy branch of a towering tree, an Andean bear, also known as the Spectacled bear (Tremarctos ornatus), gazes down with an air of tranquility. With its distinctive markings resembling eyeglasses around its eyes, this magnificent mammal seems to be enjoying some well-deserved downtime amidst the lush cloud forest. Its low angle view gives us a glimpse into its private sanctuary where it finds solace and respite from the world below. As one of Latin America's most endangered species, this sighting is truly remarkable. The Andean bear stands as a symbol of resilience and vulnerability in our ever-changing natural world. With deforestation threatening their habitat, every encounter with these majestic creatures becomes all the more precious. Lucas Bustamante's skillful capture not only showcases the beauty of this elusive creature but also reminds us to cherish and protect our wildlife heritage. So let your imagination soar among misty clouds and dense montane forests as you admire this stunning photograph – for it holds within it both wonderment and urgency to safeguard these incredible beings for generations to come!
