i love this website so much, you can learn about a lot of nature and wild life and there is some pretty funny pictures like that lemur looked like it was dancing and the cat and dog pictures were hilarious!

panda ants are actually pretty scary also, they are also wasps without wings just like velvet ants/cow ants but some cow ants/velvet ants do have wings

Noah Citizen is correct sanmiggums. All other instances of this image are under the same name as here. Therefore there is no reason to assume the image belongs to anyone other than ChrisLukhaup. Thanks for your vigilance though. We all need to keep an eye out for that sort of behaviour so that copyrights aren't abused.

Euh... are you sure the photos on internet are not from the same author? I found traces of Chris using this picture on Flickr and other sites way back in 2009.
A proof would certainly help.

Sorry but this is from the Internet. This is a site where you are suppose to put your own pictures you have found on your own
