    The Wider Image: Hunters, conservationists join forces to protect Formosan

    Ziman, a one-and-a-half-year-old rescued Formosan black bear, runs out of a cage on the day of his release, after he recovered from the amputation of a paw, in Taichung, Taiwan, May 16, 2024. Taiwanese hunters and conservationists are teaming up to protect the Formosan black bear, with only a few hundred estimated still in the wild, by designing new traps which will not amputate limbs if they are accidentally caught in a snare. "Please take care of him and help him find his parents safely," said Pihao Payen, 74, the leader of an ethnic Atayal community. REUTERS/Ann Wang
