EDITORS COMMENTS
Peek-a-boo, we see you! The mischievous Northern/Belangers Tree Shrew strikes a pose amidst the lush foliage of Peru. With its big round eyes and pointy snout, this adorable mammal knows how to steal the spotlight even when hiding behind leaves! Caught in Mark Bowler's lens, this captive tree shrew seems to be playing a game of hide-and-seek with us. Its delicate body perfectly blends with the vibrant greenery, making it hard to spot at first glance. But don't let its small size fool you; these little vertebrates are full of energy and curiosity. Known for their incredible agility and acrobatic skills, tree shrews spend most of their lives scampering through treetops in search of tasty treats like fruits, insects, and nectar. Their long tail acts as a balancing tool while they navigate the branches with ease. Although this particular tree shrew is captive, it still embodies the spirit of its wild counterparts. Its wide-eyed gaze hints at an untamed world beyond our reach—a reminder that nature always has surprises waiting just around the corner. So next time you find yourself wandering through dense forests or exploring exotic lands like Peru, keep your eyes peeled for these elusive creatures. And if luck is on your side, maybe you'll catch a glimpse of one peeking back at you from between the leaves!
