For the past decade, Ami has been documenting the race to save the northern white rhino and the giant panda from extinction. Join her as she shares stories from the frontlines of the race to save animals from extinction.

Photographer Ami Vitale has traveled to more than 100 countries, bearing witness not only to violence and conflict, but also to surreal beauty and the enduring power of the human spirit. Throughout the years, Ami has lived in mud huts and war zones, contracted malaria, and even donned a panda suit. In 2009, after shooting a powerful story on the transport and release of one the world’s last white rhinos, Ami shifted her focus to today’s most compelling wildlife and environmental stories.
