This is awesome. i like how the turtles are starting at the alligator.

Great shot!
I think we have a winner here :)

Yay, animals are back! :) Awesome. Meet Ricky, the black spiny-tailed iguana that was a kind of our pet while we were living in Mexico. He was a wild iguana but we would come to meet him and feed him his favorite food (hibiscus leaves) almost every day :) He also loved to pose for photos :D

Nejkráásnejšíííí :) 💙

wow that´s a big one!

That thing is huge. That is weird that he was a leaf eater.

If you want to see a wild Koala there is one place where you almost got a 100% chance to see one, and this is Cape Otway on the Great Ocean Road Australia.

I almost posted the same thing, since it’s so Aussie! :) But I saw the most ones on Raymond Island.

it doesn´t get more aussie than kangaroos and koalas. thanks for the hint, haven´t been on this island.

I want to hold it, but then I saw those claws. Great shot.

My Grandfather's horse Chief. He was born the same day that my Grandfather's brother Jim passed away. Jim was a Fire Chief for nearly 30 years hence the name.

That is a cool picture. I like the eyes.

Thanks. He has one blue eye and one brown eye.

This is a baby humpback whale being playful around a boat I was on in Hawaii.

Awesome shot. I would love to be able to see this in real life.

It's so hard to get a picture of a breach lol hence the crappy focusing and glare. Not that I had any photography skills either haha: but you just never know when and where one is going to jump out at. So I ended up with mostly a lot of big splash pictures.

wow.. amazing creature!

This is so cool. The monkey looks like a wise old man. I can't wait to visit Indonesia to be able to get shots like this. Great entry.

Aw, you'll love it! Such a diverse country... and magical! I would visit every single island if I could! Thanks for your compliment, my friend! This guy was so cute... and look at his nose :D!

I don't know how could I have missed this theme until now!! Probably working like a madman is to blame. Don't know if I'm still on time, but even if I'm not, since my last big trip was to Costa Rica and I was blessed to be able to see most of the animals that I wanted... here's one of my favourites for your daughter: :)

When I am at my beloved second home in the Czech Republic I have the privilege to stay with a mob of peacocks that live semi-wild in the park since many a year now ~ 🤗❤️ ~
Being shy by nature they can become tame over time and especially the older males show courage to the point were my very favorite one — since exactly today...! what great coincidence — picks up food from the palm of my hand ~ ✨ ~

Here in the picture he is looking a lot more ˋpredatory´ than he actually is...!

your comment just made me to search your post. Birds are just magical. I just love bird watching and there is no simplicity better than that.
Great shot and great angle btw.

oh I feel honored...! ~ I am basically a writer and ˋbirdwatching´ indeed plays a little role in one of my books ~ 😊✨ ~
yes ~ I very much like this image’s angle...! It is not everyday that one catches a peacock’s underparts...ha...!

This is so cool. I really like your editing style. I have been watching your work in @czechglobalhosts' contests for a while and I like the dream like feel you put on all of your photos. It is very unique.

thank you so much...! I truly have a fondness for editing and it is wonderful to hear that people positively recognize my specific style...!
I indeed am constantly overwhelmed with the ˋmagic´ in everything which seems to reflect in my artistic output :)

Perhaps they're not as exotic as a sloth (though I do have some sloth pics, somewheres) but these sweet Gray Langur Monkeys really are a treat to spend time with/near.

Sure they do. They aren't humans or plants and are alive, so I guess that would work.

I don't know how rare are they but they migrate to our place specially during rainy seasons and it is believed that they fly cross continent.

The guide tells me it is the elusive stone fish. It seldom comes out of its stone cave. It loves to prank its viewers thinking it was a stone only to move and find out it was a fish after all.

Amazing at what you do and all the photographers that send in their shots. I am amazed and what people can do with their cameras!

This shot made in 2016 on german alpines at about 1500m i want to get into the Amateurtier as everytime. At least are my pictures free from Softwareupdates or filters.. sometimes i need about 100 shots to hit the right one... smile

Hope you enjoy this one

i will probably skip this as the most exotic animals in my surroundings are foxes :) i think the most dangerous animal in my neighborhood is a badger :D

I don't have badgers here. That would be an awesome entry.

there are no that much encounters with them, i think i saw 1. most of the times it is unfortunately a roadkill in some period of a year. (don't know, maybe they are migrating from one field to another).

Wow its gonna awesome ,I just love contests .As it is wildlife photography contest so It may be little big tricky.

The most encounters I would have here is with a squirrel. The foxes run, the deer run, the moose are deep in the forest or on the side of the road which is not often and the bears... .I don't want to encounter a bear... fish? lol

Look forward to the next one!

Tasmanian Devil t69ctempgu.png
Tasmanian devils are the world's largest surviving marsupials. They used to live on mainland Australia but became extinct there due to increased aridity and the spread of dingoes. These animals are considered icons but in the past they were hunted, trapped or poisoned because of their raids on poultry farms. Consequently, they became rare and headed for extinction but in 1941 a law was made to protect them. They faced another threat in 1996 with the occurance of Devil Facial Tumour Disease which proved to be fatal. Thankfully Tasmanian devils remain widespread in Tasmania.

@derangedvisions,

Wes, the picture of the cheetah ... priceless.

The picture of the zebra ... made me hungry.
