Photo Of The Day By Elie Wolf

Photo By Elie Wolf

Today’s Photo Of The Day is “Cuddles With Mum” by Elie Wolf. Location: Serengeti National Park, Tanzania.

“Near the base of a kopje and the shade of a tree, these cubs enjoyed a cuddle with their hard-working, diligent Mum,” describes Wolf. “The expressions on their faces remind me of what I often witness in human primates. I’d like to see humankind come to understand this about animals—that they, too, feel and enjoy the affections of family, just as we do. This image was made in the Serengeti National Park, Tanzania, Summer 2019.”
