Author Yukihiro Fukuda is an acclaimed Japanese photographer who is known for capturing animals in the midst of joy. Dubbed a “happy wildlife photographer,” his representative photography books include Bunny Island and Snow Monkey. He decided to become a wildlife photographer in 1981, after becoming fascinated by the splendor of the Japanese cranes he saw in Kushiro, Hokkaido while on spring break during his first year in high school. He currently actively focuses on the three themes of animals, underwater pictures, and scenery.

With his motto "Mountains and oceans are both great!", he enjoys traveling to many natural destinations and spends a great deal of time shooting at his favorite locations and wherever there are animals to be found.

In 2003, he was a winner of the US Nature’s Best International Photography Awards in the categories of animal photography and endangered species photography. He also was named the British BBC’s Wildlife Photographer of the Year 2005 in the animal category.

His photographs capturing a group of Japanese macaques in Shodoshima, Kagawa Prefecture appeared in the July 2008 issue of National Geographic (English edition) and delighted readers worldwide.

Nikkei National Geographic was founded in September 1994 as a joint investment by Nikkei BP and the National Geographic Society of the United States to publish the Japanese edition of National Geographic magazine. Nikkei National Geographic also serves as an information source for National Geographic in Japan.
