Photograph by @thomaspeschak A blacktip reef shark hunts amongst the roots of mangrove trees in Aldabra atoll's massive lagoon. This strictly protected ecosystem is part of the Seychelles, an island nation in the Indian Ocean. Aldabra hosts one of the most pristine mangrove forests in the world, providing both shelter and substance to a wide variety of marine species. For more photographs from this incredibly ecosystem #followme @thomaspeschak and keep your eye out for the story about conservation in the #seychelles in the March 2016 issue of @natgeo magazine. @thephotosociety @saveourseasfoundation @natgeocreative #SeychellesIslandFoundation #SIF
