National Geographic photographer Joel Sartore set out to photograph every captive species on Earth—as many as 12,000 animals. No one said the job would be easy, though.

In the BoxTo capture some images, Sartore uses a soft, white, lighted box. Sometimes it gets a little crowded. There almost wasn’t room for both Sartore and this African penguin at the Monterey Bay Aquarium in California.
Stay Put!This Australian walking stick at the National Aquarium in Baltimore, Maryland, had no intention of keeping still. It hopped onto Sartore’s camera lens.
Keep Your Distance!To get the shot, Sartore needs to get close to his subjects, but not too close. This dwarf caiman at Sunset Zoo in Manhattan, Kansas, was ready to move.
Animals Behaving BadlyThese spotted hyenas at Sunset Zoo in Manhattan, Kansas, had little respect for Sartore’s clean, white backdrop. Sartore only had a few minutes to photograph them before they ruined the background.
