While out shooting meerkats in Botswana, photographer Will Burrard-Lucas transformed into the most adorable look-out post in the history of human-animal interactions, and if you dont believe us, just take a look at the pictures and his behind the scenes video weve included below.
According to Burrard-Lucas, the wild meerkats he was out shooting (with a camera) are in fact wild, but having been around humans so much, they realize that our species isnt a threat well, at least most of the ones theyve met.
Heres Burrard-Lucas BTS video in which he explains all this while the resourceful creatures climb all over his gear and himself:
