Patrick has been awarded a prize in the World Press Photo contest and the prestige’s 3ppp award for his work on the trafficking of poached animals in Asia. From the pristine jungles of Cambodia to the great national parks of India and Nepal, Asian wildlife is being plundered on an unprecedented scale. An estimated

10 million reptile skins and 500 million tropical fish are exported
by wildlife traders each year.
