51 Animals That Want To Be Photographers
We often see photographs of wildlife or of wildlife photography being taken from the cute animals' point of view. But what about wildlife photographers? That is, animals taking pictures of the pictures they're being pictured on?
It's unusual for animals to use tools, although these critters certainly seem to want to. We all know that chimps and other primates are pretty smart animals and sometimes use tools, but did you know that octopuses also use them? And that crows are so intelligent, that they understand how to displace water and are capable of solving complex puzzles or problems?
These animal photography shots capture the unexpected encounters between photographers and their subjects. Some of these funny animals seem to want to help out; others get behind the camera themselves for a selfie or two.
Have you ever had an animal want to participate in your photography? Vote on your favorite wildlife photo, or post your own below!

After the selfish killing of that beautiful lion, these photos restore one's belief in the goodness of humanity

I just love animals regardless of what they are doing (although not killing something, but I know they have to to eat but I just don't want to see it)..& the photographs are so beautiful & so are the animals... I just want to pick up the Koala as I think they're adorable & I really, really want a cwtch with a baby one. (Cwtch is a Welsh word which rhymes with Butch & it means snuggle or cuddle. Have you had a cwtch today? :)
