Zoo photographer Mac So, known for his work at Maruyama Zoo in Sapporo, Japan, offers a unique perspective on wildlife through his captivating close-up photographs of animal eyes.
His images provide a rare glimpse into what might be the emotional worlds of animals, sparking curiosity about the depth of animal perception.
Inspired by a Japanese proverb, “The eyes speak louder than the mouth,” Mac So believes that eyes reveal thoughts and feelings that words often cannot.
In people, emotions such as fear, curiosity, or affection are frequently communicated through expressions and gestures. But what about animals? Although they might lack the same visual complexity as humans, can they still experience and communicate emotions through their eyes?
