$This week, we’re featuring photos by @danielalarconparquesnacionales, who documented wildlife rescued from the fires in the Bolivian Amazon. ⁣ ⁣ This Whistling Parrot was found in Roboré, Bolivia. When he was rescued, he had a double fracture exposed on a wing. He underwent an operation and had a metallic implant. Luckily he survived, although he will never fly again.⁣ ⁣ As Daniel says, “with the images of the rescued animals, we have tried to use the powerful tools of our profession as photographers to foster empathy for our beloved wildlife. We wanted to capture more than just the physical features of the animals—to show their penetrating looks, sometimes grateful, sometimes accusing. We also wanted to show that the same human beings who have the power to destroy wildlife also have the power to rescue and care for them.” ⁣ ⁣ #RainforestAlliance #IGtakeover #Bolivia #ActForAmazonia #FollowTheFrog⁣ ⁣ (Photos by Daniel Alarcón and David Grumbaun) @laregionprensa @Zoofaunasudamericana @serfaunaofficial @mariodanielzambrana @raulernesto77 ⁣$
