SON-SN_BABOON_EXPRESSION_04
FEATURE - SN_BABOON_EXPRESSION_04
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

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

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.”

IT'S DONALD TRUNK... This playful elephant calf appears to have a funky hairdo as it splashes around in a river. The energetic calf was using adult elephant tails as toupees at Elephant Bay in the Chobe National Park, Botswana, looking a little like former US president Donald Trump.
Wildlife photographer Janine Krayer said, “Elephant Bay is popular for these elephants to come and drink as they have easy access to the water. Calves are not quite in control of their trunks during the start of their life, so can splash around as they try to imitate the adult females.”
“Baby elephants can swim right away by following their mums, often resting their trunks on the adults’ bum to stay afloat.”

A lioness swipes at an eager crocodile trying to fend it off as it tries to take back his well-earned meal. The close encounter was witnessed by Photography Safari Leader Ernest Porter, 32, in the Okavango Delta, Botswana.
He said, “This was one of the most amazing interactions I have witnessed to date, It is really rare to see two iconic African predators interact and compete for food like this, not to mention all the risk the lions took with eating in crocodile infested water. I noticed a big brown shape floating down the river. I used my binoculars and saw it was a fully intact dead female hippo floating with a big crocodile following the carcass. I saw a pride of lions that also noticed this free meal and based on their behaviour of intercepting the floating hippo I knew this was going to be one fantastic sighting."
"The lions didn’t hesitate to get into the crocodile infested water once the carcass got to a stop on the edge of the river. It was so amazing to see some of the lions climbing on top of the hippo to avoid the water as much as possible but staying on top was challenging as the hippo easily rotates and results in the lion falling into the water. The lions were able to drag the hippo carcass out of the river onto the riverbank. Up until now the lions managed to chase all the crocodiles away but now we noticed one desperate crocodile that was willing to challenge the lions for the carcass on land. The lions smacked the crocodile multiple times with their sharp claw but this crocodile must have been very hungry and desperate because he just wouldn’t give way."
"Eventually the lions gave up and watched the crocodile eating a part of their carcass, but this wasn’t too much of a problem because by then all the lions bellies were stuffed"
