It can be tricky to find moments of calm in the chaos of the river crossings that have become iconic of East Africa's great wildebeest migration. The pounding of hooves is accompanied by a cacophony of braying and grunting as the herds frantically splash their way through the turbid water. Amidst all the commotion, this dragonfly took advantage of a stationary crocodile and used its jagged tail as a resting spot. It's a vivid reminder of the myriad species that exist on the fringes of this natural spectacle. From the tiny to the huge, countless animals form part of this intricate ecosystem, which is why it's so vital that we protect it.
