Extraordinarily beautiful and sad photos of floral memorials for dead animals

Amanda Stronza is an anthropologist, professor and photographer who is in love with wildlife. She travels all over the world and takes amazing pictures of the life of wild animals. Among the hundreds of her photographs there are special ones dedicated to death. The American woman admires and honors Mother Nature so much that she has introduced her own tradition: she makes a small memorial for every dead animal that comes her way.Amanda can't pass by a dead animal without giving it the last honor. She decorates the corpse with flowers and photographs it in memory of the animal's life. These pictures are beautiful and very touching. In addition, each of them has its own story.The professor found a dead king snake not far from his house and moved it to a bed of moss

The professor found this dead baby on a path in the rocks. The little body was still warm when she put it on the stone

The snake got in the way of the professor when she was on a hike. Amanda didn't pass by the little creature

The woman found this runner on the roadway when he was still alive. She moved him to the side of the road, hoping that the snake would survive. Unfortunately, the animal died a few hours later.

The moment of saying goodbye to pets is the most difficult and touching. Photographer Ross Taylor created the emotional project "Last Moments", in which he captured the last moments of the owners and their pets before the euthanasia of animals.
