Look closely. Conny Sandland was puzzled when evidence suggested leaves on the mango tree in her garden in Kuala Lumpur were being eaten. She said: "The mystery went on for a number of days before I spotted a flicker of movement on a leaf. I was startled when I looked closer as there was a caterpillar almost completely blending into the pattern of the leaf. I believe it is the caterpillar of the Common Baron butterfly" A pink-eyed Caedicia, one of the 42 individuals of the leaf katydids (subfamily Phaneropterinae) discovered in the Muller Range mountains in the Pacific highlands of Papua New Guinea by scientists Piotr Naskrecki and David Rentz Christine Nasser and George, a Great Dane from Tucson, Arizona, who has been declared the world's tallest dog.

The photographer said: "It was really bizarre. I was photographing the squirrel and it seemed to be making some really odd shapes with its front paws. It did look like it was doing martial arts. I think it had a small nut and was struggling to get to grips with it." Mischievous squirrel monkeys appear to be enjoying the free transport as they ride around on the back of a capybara. The monkeys' antics were captured by photographer Sandra Astra at Hilvarenbeek Safari Park in the Netherlands. A baby monkey named Miwa hangs on to a baby boar named Uribo while they run around in the Fukuchiyama City Zoo, Kyoto A lazy monkey hitches a ride to the top of a tree - sitting on the back of a parrot.
