The Agmon Hula reserve in northern Israel has been closed to visitors since October. This is the fifth year that the reserve has not completed a year of activity.

The staff that remains maintains the reserve and cares for the animals. "It's not good to fight during migration seasons," says Inbar Shlomit-Robin, the area manager. "The energy is heavy, hard and sad. As it affects us - so it affects the whole environment," says Adam. "Every time I have fun again, and every time the place looks different"
