Children of Eden: A Tribute to the Wildlife of Sri Lanka contains 120 of the best images that Sri Lankan photographer Rajiv Welikala has captured over 17 years. The images cover a vast variety of species, from the more charismatic and iconic members of Sri Lankan wildlife such as leopards, elephants, bear, and whales, to smaller members such as birds and lizards. A few landscape shots illustrate what this Eden looks like. Rajiv’s special interest in tuskers is evident as the book features more than 10 photos showcasing some of Sri Lanka’s magnificent tuskers such as the elusive Wilpattu tusker ‘Megha’, Kawdulla’s giant tusker ‘Enigma’ and the late Siyambalangamuwa tusker.
