22 Photos Are Composed Of Numerous Pixels As There Are Animals Still Active In The Species

An intellectual campaign held in 2008 by the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) has resurfaced, a big thanks to a recent Reddit post going crazily viral.

Titled ‘WWF Japan- The Population by Pixel’ the campaign was developed by an agency, Hakuhodo C&D/Tokyo.

The mastermind behind the campaign were creative directors Yoshiyuki Mikami and Nami Hoshino as well as designer Kazuhiro Mochizuki.

Encouraged by their work, Imgurain JJSmooth44 did a follow up on their project and it came out really brilliant as the original itself.

‘I got myself involved as a programming challenge. I did it… in python, but the code is actually gross. I was quite worried about the final product and not necessarily the niceness of the code.’ JJSmooth 44 explained.
