River Crews: the Irrawaddy Dolphins

In a special series of commissioned wildlife photos, we sent Georgie and Daniel to Kratie in rural Cambodia to try and catch a glimpse of the rare Irrawaddy Dolphins which still survive in the Mekong River. Experts suggest there only 78 still alive here and these shots are a very rare glimpse of these mystical creatures.

"After bundling along on a broken tuk tuk into the depths of the rural forest we managed to get a boat to take us to the area of Kratie where the Irrawaddy Dolphins can still be found," explained Georgie. "We rowed as close as we could to them and we came away with these amazing close ups of the animals, the best shots ever taken by wildlife photographers we think."
