Cheetah cubs chase a gazelle fawn that was given to them by their mother in order to help them hone their hunting skills. This image was captured by Exodus tour guide and wildlife photographer Paul Goldstein. He says: "It is often hard to watch, but cheetahs are desperately endangered, but Thomson's gazelles are not - the day we run short of those fleet-footed antelope, we really have screwed up the planet."

A lemon shark bites another on the snout in waters off the Bahamas. Photographer Matt Heath said: "The sharks in this picture were competing for a piece of fish that I was hand-feeding them. I was trying to feed one of the sharks when the other came in and bit at the fish at the same time. Unluckily for the first lemon shark, the second one missed the fish and caught this guy on the nose."
