Conservation Awareness through Photography
Pictures of nature and wildlife are valuable when they contribute to conservation awareness that can help generate news stories and provide material for awareness campaigns. Chimpanzee Trust keeps on looking for different individuals that can enable them reachout to as many people as possible in their fight for the chimpanzee Plight. Mr. Anthony Ochieng ‘s love for the conservation work at Ngamba island Chimpanzee Sanctuary joined our team to create conservation awareness through photography.
Anthony Ochieng is a Kenyan born, Wildlife Ecologist, Nature and Wildlife Photographer, Traveler, Educator and Explorer. He holds a Bachelor of Science in Wildlife Management from Moi University and currently pursuing Masters in Wildlife Management in Karatina University. He is the founder of TonyWild.
