Love the leopard behind the tree – straight out of Gary Larson’s Far Side
Yes! The Gary Larson reference is spot on J. Lovely collection of photos – thanks for posting.

Quokka selfies is a thing. A Quokka is a small kangaroo type creature about the size of a house-cat with no fear of humans and a happy smiling appearance. They always look like they are pulling off a successful photo-bombing. With their little arms extended their expressions always seem to be saying, “Surprise!”
Californian sea-otters are possibly the most photogenic animals under the sun. We watched entranced for almost half an hour as a mother sea-otter repeatedly dived for food, while her pup lounged around on the surface for a few minutes before beginning a sorry little squeaky bleat, which it repeated every few seconds until mum re-surfaced again. They ran this charming sequence over and over again until either she simply fancied a diet change – they have so much food available just off the coast at Monterey that they can grab lunch any time they feel like it – or she got fed up with the pup’s antics and decided to move off somewhere it wouldn’t get bored so quickly. All the while, both mum and pup were the epitome of charm to watch.
