These images are gruesome and brutal, but they have to be shown because of their important message – they raise awareness of the often unseen casualties of deforestation around the world. Creative and art director Ganesh Prasad Acharya, together with copywriter Kaushik Katty Roy, created these social ads for Sanctuary Asia, one of the first and greatest environmental news magazines in India.
The slogan on these ads, “When the wood go, wildlife goes” drives home the point made by these macabre images – when you cut down habitats, you might as well kill the animals that live there as well. Rainforests contain as much as 80% of the world’s biodiversity, so their rapid destruction in South America and Asia is a serious problem.

Not all of these shown go into the same publication. One version will go into different publications - it is the same campaign, people...

Looking at other replies, I think they are either blind or brain dead, just get back into your concrete jungle.
Oh please!!! They,are making a grafic and terrific statement regarding deforestation. That is point. !
That's true, but everybody want something made with wood. We need to go back to jungle, or plant threes again.
it's just sicking and horrible some could do this to innocent animal's or even think like this if they didn't do this :(
it's just sicking and sad and horrible some one could do this or even think like this! this world has gone mad!
I think the images are great but preaching to the converted! I don't think the people chopping them down care about the trees OR the animals
It is actually very serious because people is not realising what cutting down trees does
Anyone else see the Illumanti in the tree trunk in the snake photo ha
Well these pictures aren't real but I do get the implications of them.
Definitely sends the message across, and super professionally done. Might I suggest not using the same steak for the insides, clone it out
You are so freaking wacky. And I know it's your personal opinion and all, but MAN. Given an image this unnatural, you come up with PS ....
I think they're goofy looking. *insert cropped image of steak, add drips*
