Desman Desmans Nose Noses Russia Russian Smelling Sniffing
ANZ-1443 - The Russian Desman - Master of the Sniffing Game!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we witness the incredible talent of the adult Russian Desman as it fearlessly explores its surroundings using its extraordinary sense of smell. With a flexible nose that seems to be "probing air" this little mammal showcases its typical posture while searching for hidden treasures in the Okskii Biospheric Nature Reserve. Despite their undeniable cuteness, these desmans face a hilarious challenge when it comes to maintaining an upright position. It's almost as if they were born with a comical predisposition for toppling over! But hey, who needs balance when you have such an exceptional sniffing ability? Located in the breathtaking river Oka valley, just 50km east from Ryazan town in Central Russia, this autumn scene captured by Andrey Zvoznikov is nothing short of enchanting. The vibrant colors and crisp October air perfectly complement our adorable protagonist's quest for aromatic adventures. Let us not forget that this snapshot belongs to nature's realm and should not be associated with any commercial use. So sit back, relax, and let your imagination run wild as you delve into the fascinating world of wildlife photography through Andrey Zvoznikov's lens.
