These heart-warming shots show a harbour seal thoroughly enjoying itself – smiling, waving and even LAUGHING while perched on a rock. The seal was spotted having a blast at Fisherman’s Wharf in Monterey, California – an area of the US home to many harbour seals. Keen snapper Veronica Craft admits she loves seals because of their jolly nature. This happy soul, which she has nicknamed “LOL” was more than happy to play up for the camera providing much amusement for her friends and family. (Photo by Veronica Craft/Caters News)

Real life Roo-d Boy – this incredible photo captures a gangster kangaroo posing like a pro for the camera. This must be the worlds coolest Kangaroo – the amazing marsupial crosses his arms with attitude for this stunning shot. The roo-diculous picture was taken in Sturf Stony Desert in New South Wales, Australia. Giant Red Kangaroos are notoriously shy and are only found in the wilds of the Australian outback – but this fella is bustin some moves for the camera. Photographer Jami Tarris spent four months and sat like a frozen statue - not moving a muscle for several hours - to get this shot. The 57-year-old from Santa Fe, New Mexico, U.S.A, works as a photographer full time and is never happier than when hes snapping roos deep in the bush. (Photo by Jami Tarris/Caters News)

Underwater photobomb: porcupine fish steals the show. One evening in November, photographer Andrey Nekrasov was on a dive looking for nocturnal wildlife, near Sharm al-Sheik in the Red Sea, off the coast of Egypt. The group was at a depth of about 26 feet (8 meters) when this startled specimen – a porcupine fish – joined the party. Robert Robins, a senior biologist at the Division of Ichthyology at the Florida Museum of Natural History, identified the fish as a member of the “diodontid” family, and a relative of the family known as pufferfish.

The jealous empty-pawed mammal appeared to decide it would be a good idea to grab its grub from a nearby rival. But the defending bear would not give its slippery snack away quite so easily and the two began a fearsome fight over the fresh water fish. (Photo by Tin Man Lee/Caters News)

This is the heart-stopping moment a gigantic whale sprung to the surface of the water just feet away from stunned kayakers. Casually minding their own business the kayakers were paddling along trying to spot whales in the distance at Monterey Bay in California, USA. But suddenly the 40ft, 80,000lb beast rose out of the water almost within touching distance of the shocked pair who couldnt believe their eyes as the once-in-a-lifetime scene unfolded. Laws state that nobody can approach a whale within 100 yards of them but the mammoth mammal decided to take them by surprise instead. The incredible moment was captured by Giancarlo Thomae, a marine biologist from Moss Landing in California. (Photo by Giancarlo Thomae/Caters News)

This lemur looks like he is channelling the spirit of Buddha – as he sits meditating. Sitting with his legs crossed, the lemur clasps his thumb and fore finger together with outstretched arms – just like the spiritual teacher. And amateur snapper Sebastien Degardin, 32, was on hand to capture the bizarre moment the animal searched for enlightenment on film. Sebastien, who moved from his native Belgium to Finchley, North London, said: I was gobsmacked when I saw this lemur meditating. (Photo by Sebastien Degardin/Caters News)
