Some of nature’s creations are so bizarre that we often find ourselves wondering whether we saw an insect or a weirdly-shaped flower — or if we saw a wolf, a fox, or a deer. The bottom line is: evolution doesn’t play by the rules, and it surely enjoys breaking our expectations.
OUR daily picture editor's gallery shows off some of the most spectacular images taken by the world's top photographers.
The August "Best of Kruger and Big Cats" Photo Safari has just ended and here is a selection of photos from the trip. By far the most diverse safari yet with clients coming from Belgium, the UK, Australia, Norway and the USA !! We were treated to some fantastic sightings during our 10 night stay in the Kruger National Park, including 34 White Rhino and 11 Leopards !! As usual, the Big Cat Reserve served as an excellent training ground and the Lion, Leopard and Cheetah experiences and photo opportunities were outstanding. The 2 night Forest Lodge extension proved once again to be a success - who said photographing Reptiles is not fun !! ?? :) All the very best from the Wild4 team, until next time, Cheers for now Stu Cheetah - Big Cat Reserve White Rhino - Kruger National Park African Wilddog - Kruger National Park Tiger Snake - Reptile Park Sungazer Lizard - Reptile Park Male Leopard - Big Cat Reserve Wildebeest Running - Kruger National Park Cape Buffalo - Big Cat Reserve Two Male Elephant - Kruger National Park A very rare Narina Trogon - Forest Lodge Green Mamba - Reptile Park Male Leopard - Big Cat Reserve White Backed Vulture landing - Forest Lodge Vervet Monkey - Kruger National Park Dwarf Chameleon - Reptile Park Mozambique Spitting Cobra - Reptile Park Saddle Billed Stork, Kruger National Park Female Leopard - Kruger National Park Lilac Breasted Roller in flight - Kruger National park Male Lion & cub - Big Cat Reserve Black Mamba - Reptile Park Marabou Storks fighting - Forest Lodge Cheetah jumping - Big Cat Reserve
Otters are terrible pets, but they're still cute as heck, so big props to the wildlife rehabilitation facilities, sanctuaries, and zoos who make this list possible!

Enjoying a teatime snack, this mother panda is a picture of calm – before almost jumping out of her fur after her baby emits an almighty sneeze.
