Stunning wildlife photographs

September 5, 2015, 12:26 PM

These breath-taking photographs reveal the everyday lives of animals living in the wild. The incredible images were taken by wildlife photographer Wim van dan Heever, from Pretoria, South Africa, during trips to locations including Japan, Botswana and Svalbard.

He has travelled across the globe to photograph wild animals - from lions and tigers, to elephants, dolphins and eagles - as they hunt, give birth and graze in their natural habitats. (Caters News)
