Images which show how individual animals interact with others of their own kind, or a lone animal
performing a key survival behavior:

● Courtship, Mating, parenting: birds engaged in courtship ritual; animal nurturing.
● Competition: males fighting for dominance.

crocodile and wildebeest
(Mara River, Tanzania)
augment the emotional
impact and the dramatic
story value.

the additional interaction (eye contact)
with the photographer.

nature story.
