Playing mom to an armful of koalas "doesn't allow me much time for anything else," says Samantha Longman of Ormiston, who's been raising orphans for five years. "But the little guys are part of our family. What we're doing is important."

I captured this image while visiting the butterfly exhibit in Houston, Texas. I noticed this leaf being illuminated by the sun and was just hoping a butterfly would land for a few seconds so I could get a few shots. I'm glad I was patient.

Coyote, Yellowstone National Park



July 17, 2012

[h=2]Coyote, Yellowstone National Park
[/h] Photograph by Timothy Brooks
This Month in Photo of the Day: Animal Pictures
With a strong vision and sense of smell, and the ability to reach up to 40 miles per hour, coyotes are symbolic of adventure. I was fortunate enough to find this wild coyote while visiting Yellowstone National Park. It leaped and ran under tree branches and between boulders. I made sure not to disturb the coyote, and when it lay down on top of a hill I was able to include the coyote's environment in the background. This image displays the coyote's vast habitat, and a sense of mysteriousness and exploration, through its single eye staring back at the camera.

Flamingos, fiercely loyal in wild flocks, move in unison when there is a threat. Here, near Sisal, Mexico, a research plane is passing overhead. Several major breeding groups live in estuaries around the Caribbean and beyond.

Rabbit, Oregon

This Month in Photo of the Day: Animal Pictures
I was driving in Oregon when a rabbit crossed paths with my car. I slammed on the brakes and stopped while the bunny shot across the rest of the road. I thought "why not?" and pulled out my camera while it brushed itself off, and it appeared it was praying when I captured the photo.

We encountered a pod of bottlenose dolphins near Los Islotes in Baja California Sur, Mexico. The shot was taken from the deck of the National Geographic Sea Bird, where I was working as a deckhand for the months of February and March.

Wild Horses, France

[h=2]Wild Horses, France
[/h] Photograph by Marco Carmassi, Your Shot
This Month in Photo of the Day: Animal Pictures
I've been a photographer for more than 25 years. This is an image from my "Camargue Wild Horses" collection, composed of around 50 photos. I took it around a month ago during my trip to the Camargue Nature Park, where I had the luck to shoot these wonderful animals in their natural environment. I used a Canon 5D Mark II with a Canon 70-200mm L lens.

A very large juvenile male (white) challenges the alpha male (gray) for control of the wolf pack. Although it faced a formidable challenger, the alpha prevailed … for now.

Chamaeleo monachus is found solely on Socotra, as are 90 percent of the island's other reptiles. Local people believe the chameleon is magic: It's said that a person hearing its hiss will lose the ability to speak.
