A 10-week-old hearing-impaired kitten called Buzz attends a cat obedience class at the Prahran Vet Hospital in Melbourne, Australia. The youngster needs to learn hand commands because he is unlikely to ever respond to vocal commands. Australian vet Nicole Hoskin said: "He's been dumped and is going to be harder to re-home so I've had to teach him to pay attention to me. Already he's sitting on command and high-fiving with one paw and he can high-10 with both paws over his head."

A baby chameleon hatches from an egg after being guarded by its mum deep down in their burrow. Photographer Francisco Mingorance worked with chameleons for 15 years before he was able to capture the special moment. The breeding female dug a 70cm-deep tunnel in the soil to create a small vault where she laid her eggs in Almunecar, near Malaga, Spain. Around a year later, the eggs hatched, and Francisco caught the magic moment. Francisco says: "Just minutes after the small chameleons hatched, they left the den by the same tunnel that their mother dug a year earlier. Once in the open they camouflaged themselves in the vegetation."

A diver swims alongside a Greenland shark, a rarely-seen species that looks like it has been etched from stone. They can survive for more than 200 years at depths of up to 600 metres under Arctic ice. They grow to 23-feet long and are so fearsome they have even been known to eat polar bears. Photographer Doug Perrine captured the elusive creatures when they ventured in to the warmer waters of the St Lawrence River, in North America. He said: "These sharks were very placid and curious. They are much calmer than other sharks; they have an almost goofy, comical appearance. The sharks are known to prey on large seals but I never felt threatened."
