This young cub was pestering his mother to play with him. He would claw at her as she was dosing off. He continued at this until she eventually conceded and started playing back.

Innocence of Youth
Watching baby animals in the wild is a small pleasure in life. I love how even with all the dangers and unpredictability of the world they live in they seem so innocent and oblivious.

Curious Monkey
Driving around Pilanesberg National Park (South Africa), I got particularly close to this little guy and his family feeding in the bushes next to the road.

He stared long and hard at us with a face of wonder and bewilderment until he eventually ran off.
