Read previous parts here: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

LOL Cats are tame compared to this

As always in this series, we celebrate the photography of animals in real situations (trying to stay away from any image modifications). The funniest and wildest shots prove that animals can give great moments of hilarity and entertainment for the often glum and humorless mankind.

Some photos were taken by submitters, some hunted down from the web or through emails, without definite attribution info. For such pictures we ask the viewers to let us know who the original photographers are, so that we could include this info.

We traditionally start with the Cute Section... Absolute contentment:
















Otters holding hands (see related video, viewed by 8 million people already)

Oops! the wrong end:



Do not kick this ball:



Hey, what are you up to?!



His friend is up to no good, as well. See here.

and this guy is not hesitating, either:













These animals are not really ugly, just overly expressive:

Man-made ugliness:




Apes & Monkeys:































Felines & Canines















Getting hungry:










Purely American way to exercise your dog:

Humans obey their master:



Simple and nice:





Bears in all kinds of mischief:






















Polar Bear Swimming. Great shot, sent to us by Richard Lehoux:
(note the "AC/DC" mark under its nose)

Elephants could be funny:
















Some moments in bird's life:












How to prepare a kiwi:




Loving affection:







Careful with the crocodile!







Animal Photographers:













And a couple of photoshop jobs we liked:

What kind of animal is that between the meerkat and the ermine?

Anonymous Osiris said...

Looks like a wombat to me. Also, being rather pedantic, 'ermine' isn't a name of an animal. It's a word for the white winter coat of the stoat, a very mysterious and little understood animal indeed.

Its a tree kangaroo. They live in the forests of Australia and New Guinea, and they are soooo cute
