NATURE PAPS

NATURE PAPARAZZIS prove you don't have to be Justin Bieber or Cheryl Cole to attract a pack of photographers. As these pictures show, in many respects human stars have it easy compared to these celebs of the animal world - who must survive the animal jungle under the media gaze. These photographs, captured by photographic safari guide Zane Engelbrecht, 25, capture some of the wilds most beautiful creatures as animal paps get up close and personal. These pictures show nature photographers getting up close with snakes, cheetahs, rhinos and even lions, as they go to any lengths to get their perfect shots.
