A short series highlighting the loss of many a species due to the greed of our forefathers in the pursuit of pointless and ineffective medicines and trinkets, and the impact of that loss felt by new generations.

Story

I wanted to create a series to highlight the destruction of our planets wildlife due to some cultures unfounded beliefs that certain body parts are beneficial to human health, and to others it's a trophy game. Even though younger generations are starting to realize the devastation of their forefathers greed, for many species it's already too late. Many of these animals are chained to their fate with no time to escape.
