Here's another shot from our Pantanal, Brazil trip.  On the last day of the trip, we saw this Crab-eating Fox carrying it's young from under the deck of the lodge (Piuval Lodge) to a culvert down the road.  It had rained the night before and the den under the deck must have become too wet for them.  The mother carried all the babies (5 or 6) one at a time from the old den to the new den.

Wow, what a thing to see and capture! That's sure a tiny pup. Nice low perspective and good action implied.

Outstanding shot Nate, the eye level makes a huge difference on any shot and here we have a great example, great DOF too.
