I took this shot of a sun bear at Wellington Zoo. They're called sun bears because of the creamy round sun shape on their upper chest. (You can't see it in this shot) They come from the Southern Asia region. Visit Camera Critters to see more animal photos.
We came across these mountain goats on the side of the road near Mt. Rushmore. Hubby and I were more excited about seeing them than the president's faces. The animals ignored us as they took a drink from the water that trickled down a rock face. To see more...

This is my eighty-year-old father's horse Arizona. She had a foal just over a week ago. Now he's a bit put out because he can't ride his horse around the farm, but he's as proud as punch of Arizona's foal. He's about ten days old in this photo and as yet, unnamed. He...
