Some critters tend to shy away from the camera.

 

But these curious animals show no sign of fear as they get up close to photographers in their natural habitat.

 

The adorable images show bears, big cats, birds and other members of the animal kingdom distracting photographers from the task in hand as they investigate what's going on.

 

One meerkat cheekily sits on the back of a photographer as he gets down on the ground to take some pictures in Bostwana, Africa, while a young black bear is caught standing upright as it examines a camera set in Ontario, Canada.

 

In Austria, an alpine marmot gets very close to a cameraman, as it pokes its head into a lens hood.

 

Scroll down to see the friendly beasts, making a wildlife photographer's job a touch more tricky.

 

A cheetah sniffs around a photographer in South Africa, who seems unaware the big cat is so close 

 

A curious kitten approached animal photographer Mitsuaki Iwago sitting on the ground filming. The adorable incident occurred on the island of Okinawa, Japan

@Cakers3 and @KingstonsMom and everyone!

I was just thinking about a documentary I watched several years ago that I will never forget.

I was going to mention it here but forgot the name. I looked it up and that was the documentary of the Dutchers!

And Cakers-You met them!!Heart

If you get a chance, watch it. So incredible and beautiful.
