This week’s photo challenge is to tell a story with three photos (see the details here).
Now there are two.

WPC: Threes
Nature on the Edge
Wildlife photography along the urban edge
I can’t click like, it’s too sad 😦
Isn’t it 😦 It was the sassy little one with attitude. So vulnerable and the road kill stats grow.
The group shot is really good. Bravo
Oh how sad. I was so delighted with the first image that caught my eye! Adorable little creatures! But the other two…now I am crying and so sad. WHat kind of animals are those? How I hate seeing the animals hit by cars. It always breaks my heart.
Wait, I see now. A Grey Mongoose! We don’t have those in the US. Gosh they are cute. I stopped crying, but I am still sad. I read the other posts you did on them. THank you!
They’re frequently in and out of our garden, but this little youngster will be missed. The sibling is growing fast, but no longer can we see them dashing after each other playing tag. Sad 😦
I am sorry for your loss (even though that sounds a little weird, I mean it). I bet his family misses him too.
Yes, road kill’s a problem worldwide; needless deaths.
Yes. I totally hate it!
I like the shots but sad about the end
Yes, a sad ending 😦
A very sad ‘story’ but you accomplished your weekly goal quite creatively. 😦
Yes, it’s sad, as the parents had done such a good job at raising the pair up to that point. Darn road hogs.
Oooooh, how terribly sad!! The three of theme look so gorgeous, inquisitive. Oh gosh.
Sad… but life goes on and the surviving youngster is out and about with mum, getting bigger every day.
Yes, that’s life, Liz, sad enough. Good to see, the other is still there, with the mum.
Liz- This “threes” fits so well with your theme. A powerful pictorial of the urbanization of nature. So many sad stories… outstanding photo-journalism composition.

Road kill impacts badly on our local wildlife populations… agitating for speed humps in our area to slow down the roadhogs.
These three images tells more than a story 🙂
Superb selection… best of the lot I have seen so far.
Thank you Sreejith 🙂
Sooo adorable!
Yes, the youngsters are cute, about 4 months old in the first shot.
darn.
Yes .. a needless death.
poor little one.
Yes, it’s sad – another loss through road kill; blast those careless motorists.
Me also..I clicked “like”, but I find it so sad…We take a lot of care about deers, wilde boars…But it is difficul to do it with small animals…
.. yes, they become statistics. Feel helpless sometimes.
Think we need to change it from “like” to “appreciate” for cases just like this 😦 The first photo is adorable. The second and third tell a very different story. If you’re advocating for speed bumps perhaps a poster with these photos would help your cause! Nicely done Liz, as always.
What a poignant essay… Such beautiful creatures. I’m so sorry that such a gorgeous little one had to be killed at our hands, sadly common. Such a sweet little family.
Like so many before me, I can’t like this sad story, but you’ve told it so simply and beautifully. Here, society’s nonchalant (at best) attitude toward animals on the roads and elsewhere is disheartening.
I can’t click like…it made me so very sad
