Quick studies of various primates – gorilla, orangutan mom and baby, gold-headed tamarin, and an emperor tamarin baby. Just monkeying around with facial expressions. 😉
Studies of polar bear mom and cub, with a focus on stretching and pulling motions. Interesting observation – some animals pick up their young by the scruff of their neck, but the momma polar bear will pick up her cub by any inch of fur that she can get her teeth around.

Studies of Malay Mouse Deer and a Green Sea Turtle. Though the Malay Mouse Deer looks rodent-like, these amazingly tiny creatures with their mousy snouts and slender spindly legs truly are part of the deer family.
