 <\/p>\n

The visualization aims to give a comprehensive status of large African mammals. The visualization is unprecedented in its information and the design is novel and unique. <\/span><\/p>\n

Things I liked in the visualization – <\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The use of animal symbols for selecting the animal. <\/span><\/li>\n
  2. The facing of animal to emphasize decreasing or increasing population.<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. The highlighting of the area in Africa to identify the habitat of the animal.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Things for improvement <\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. The segregation of the animals is nicely done but the animals cannot be searched by names and identifying the specific species of deer\/apes based on its silhouette is difficult for an average person. \u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    2. Selecting of animals based on country is not available. It would be nice to see the country names and borders as it would help an average reader.<\/span><\/li>\n
    3. Metrics like the current numbers or the increase\/decrease numbers\/percentages can be added. <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Although the addition of names of countries, animals, metrics like population will make it more interesting, I believe the visualization is fresh and unparalleled in showing the data about large mammals in Africa. <\/span>
