Whether it's a black rhino in Africa or a squirrel in a city park, share your favorite shots of animals in nature! Go wild!
(If your favorite animal photos are a bit tamer, don't worry! There will be a future PIP Poll for zoos, farms, and critters of a more domestic variety!)
These technically count as wildlife (rather than in a zoo) because it was at the panda reserve. Some day I need to scan my South America photos, but this is all I've got.

These two were walking outside the hotel lobby @ our hotel in Manuel Antonio, CR. We also have pictures of these things @ a local Tamarindo, CR mall and the hotel pool @ Tabacon in La Fortuna.
@ Manuel Antonio, CR
It's a fake alligator at the bottom of our hotel's pool in MA, CR; but I thought it was really cute.

GilliC I look forward to these threads every other week, so thank you! It's nice to see people's travels, and it also gives me a chance to relive some of my favorite travels.
Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime. Mark Twain

I like to take photos of house cats I see outside too. A black kitty that followed me around the Dortmund Zoo. Including into the giraffe house. He then promptly sat on the heaters there like it was just another day snoozing. Not so friendly looking farm cat near my old apartment in Switzerland. A very friendly cat I made friends with in Bern. I have no fear. I would pet just about any cat that would let me.
Admittedly I don't know bird species that well. Swan at Zürichsee. Some sort of duck at Maurm CH. And a crane near my apartment in Zürich. I miss that apartment it was on a canal and I could here the ducks quacking at night.
