Without a camera trap, taking this photo would?ve been impossible. ?I could spend the rest of my life and never get close enough to the Florida panther to make photographs with a wide-angle lens,? says conservation photographer Carlton Ward Jr. (@carltonward), who got this shot using a camera trap with an invisible tripwire. ?A camera trap is essentially a studio waiting in the woods,? Carlton says. ?When an animal crosses the beam it takes its own picture.? Like a selfie. ? Today on our story, Carlton shares more ?impossible? shots from the Florida Wildlife Corridor.
