EDITORS COMMENTS
In this adorable close-up photo, Sherman, the overweight hedgehog, steals the spotlight as he perches on top of a scale proudly displaying his weight of 1477 grams (3.26 lbs). Captured at the Ramat Gan Safari Zoo near Tel Aviv, Israel by photographer Amir Cohen for Reuters Images, this snapshot showcases both the humorous and cute side of this small mammal. With its creative use of depth of field and out-of-focus background, the image highlights Sherman's round figure against a natural environment. The cone-shaped scale adds an element of whimsy to the composition while emphasizing just how much weight our little hedgehog friend has gained. Despite being devoid of any human presence in the frame, Sherman manages to captivate viewers with his undeniable charm. This photograph serves as a reminder that wildlife comes in all shapes and sizes; even an overweight hedgehog can bring joy and fascination. Amir Cohen's skillful capture not only documents nature but also evokes emotions through his lens. Whether it is admiration for Sherman's cuteness or amusement at his weight displayed so boldly on the scale, this image invites us into a world where even animals have their own unique stories to tell.
