OH WHAT A SURPRISE… A baboon pulls a perfect "O" expression towards the camera. The Chacma baboon's expressions were observed in the Chobe National Park, Botswana.
Wildlife photographer Nick Dale, 56, from South West London, said, “On an early morning safari drive, I noticed a group of Chacma Baboons, including a couple of younger ones, only yards away from the truck. It was a patience game waiting for the young one to turn towards me so once it did, it was just a burst of shots to get what I wanted. It was a sweet moment having it yawn towards me after having chewed a stick.”
“I love the expression the baboon pulls, like it is surprised or shocked that it is being photographed and having its moment in the limelight. Chacma Baboons are always such a delight to photograph as they’re so inquisitive and expressive.”

(FOTO: DUKAS/SOLENT NEWS) *** Local Caption *** 1. When were the photos taken? May 2024
2. Where were they taken? Chobe National Park, Botswana
3. How did you get the shots and were there any difficulties? If so, what were they? I was in a safari truck on a game drive early in the morning, and I noticed this young chacma baboon only a few yards away. The biggest difficulty was waiting for it to turn in my direction! I took a burst of shots, so I got the yawn pretty much from start to finish—even though it was turning its head at the time!
4. Do you know why the baboon pulled the face like that? It was yawning.
5. What was the baboon doing in the moments before/after the shots? It was chewing on a stick.
6. What is your favourite thing about the moment? I love the expression on the baboon's face. The first time I saw it, it made me smile.
7. Is there anything further you think we should know to help us caption the shots? When animals yawn, it's easy to think they're doing something else: roaring, snarling or expressing surpri
