D id not realize their population was so low.  I think this image needs to be just a bit darker/color saturation.  Looks just a bit washed out.    I like the close-up of their snouts.  Thanks for sharing.

Nishand, I think this one would have benefited from some adjustment to a level of -1, or even -2 Exposure Value to compensate for the very bright light.
