CLIENT: WILD EARTH ALLIES
Meas Theun, 26, a member of the Kuy ethnic group, walks through the forest after tapping a tree for resin in the Prey Lang Forest, a nature preserve in northern Cambodia. The Kuy are the original habitants of the area and considered protectors of the forest. Resin tapping has long been a foundational source of income for the Kuy, who perform it in a way that does not harm the trees.
