An angry lioness launches herself at a male - but ends up sitting on his head, looking like a lion hat. She pounced at the male when he tried to discipline her cubs, but misjudged the distance. Park ranger Jacques Matthysen photographed the moment at a game reserve in South Africa.

Kely, a Ring-tailed Lemur (Lemur catta) at Melbourne Zoo in Victoria, Australia, has given birth to two new babies. They are the first lemur young to be born in the zoo in 10 years, and brings zoo numbers up to ten.

In the wild, lemurs typically give birth to just one infant, and they are difficult to breed in captivity. They are listed as “Near Threatened” by the IUCN Red List.
