“That’s My Paw!” More fun times with Red Fox kits. [Newfoundland]
“Little Lemur” This baby Ring-tailed Lemur has reached the age where it can go off an explore on its own. Everything is new and fun! [Madagascar]
“The Pounce” For the cat lover (like me) there’s a special joy in seeing big cats – even when they are little like these lion cubs - play together. The wiggles, the laying of traps, the pounces…it’s similar behavior to our house cats but with much bigger claws! [Kenya]
“Baby Bear” Even though this spring cub is small, you can see the essence of the Black Bear coming through in that gaze. This little one looks around but is ready to climb a tree to safety if mom gives the word. [Smokie Mountains]
“Confidence” A young elephant strides across the landscape – heading over to the family and enjoying life. [Kenya]
“Peeking Out” Two young Dwarf Mongoose peek out from their termite mound burrow as the sun warms the day. [Kenya]
“Noisy Night Monkeys” When I learned the name of these guys I got such an image! They are the only nocturnal monkey and while we never heard them (they were pretty deep in the jungle), I can just imagine their antics! [Ecuadorian Amazon]
“Got You!” I can’t get enough of watching Red Fox its play together. While mom and dad are away hunting for the family, the kits just have a blast together. [Newfoundland]
“Look What I Found!” When you’ve just been born a few months earlier and you mom takes you on a walk on a beach, everything is new! This little Brown Bear cub found a great swatch of grasses to play with. So many discoveries! [Alaska]
“Learning to Climb” This baby Orangutan was learning how to safely navigate her way through the jungle when we came upon her. Mom would move a yard or two and wait. Baby would watch and slowly follow. This is the way. [Borneo]
“My, What Big Ears You Have!” These are Bat-Eared Foxes. It’s not very common to see them but the night before it had rained, and their burrows must have been wet. No one wants to sit in a wet burrow! This pair hung out around their den as their kits ran around. A nice moment of bonding. [Tanzania]
“Sloth Time” This baby Three-toed Sloth in Cost Rica was exploring its tree. Mom was up above, giving it room to roam within the safety of her care. [Costa Rica]
“A Big Cuddle” The roadside sign said “Prairie Dog Town” so yes we had to go. What an enjoyable time, capturing their antics – including their affection and bonds with each other. [Montana]
“Holding On” A baby Ring-tailed Lemur holds on to mama as she feeds on the thorny vegetation. [Madagascar]
Baby elephant lifts its trunk to sniff the air, wondering, “who’s that?” I hope we showered! [Kenya]
