Call for cover photos

Do you have great photos of rhinos or African elephants in the wild? Would you like to have them featured in the cover of Pachyderm? If interested, email us low-resolution versions of the photo, together with a short description and details on the location where the photo was taken. If your photo is selected for publication, we will ask you for a hi-resolution version. We can't offer financial remuneration, but authors of featured photos will receive a free copy of the issue of Pachyderm in which their photo is published.
