Tail-on is the only way to go: Take it from a herring connoisseur in Friedrichskoog, Germany.

I'm looking for a position that involves chasing rabbits: Riki, a currently unemployed resident of the Kiev Zoo, poses for a photo for her Lynxedin profile.

How did I get here? Where did this blanket come from? Why is my tummy yellow? It's all so confusing for Nadua, the Golden-bellied Capuchin at the Cologne Zoo

One naked man, one vote: An election official helps an elder Papuan tribesman fill out his ballot at a mountain polling station in Wamena, Papua Province, Indonesia. Indonesia voted in only its second direct presidential election since the fall of the Suharto dictatorship.

Waiting by the arsenal: A Uighur man squats near bricks collected for ammunition against Han Chinese mobs in Urumqi, China. Sobbing Muslim women scuffled with riot police, and Chinese men wielding steel pipes and meat cleavers rampaged through the streets as ethnic tensions worsened in China's oil-rich Xinjiang territory.

Soggy ol' England: Torrential rains pound the Houses of Parliament in London. Heavy storms caused flash flooding and power outages throughout southern England.

They're especially fond of the meat trees: Eight malnourished tigers brought in from a bankrupt zoo in Portugal are much happier - and fatter - after eight months at Serengeti-Park animal park in Hodenhagen, Germany.

After a few Stolies at the G-8 summit ... Nicolas Sarkozy of France and Silvio Berlusconi (right) of Italy help prop up Dmitry Medvedev of Russia, who, as usual, is leaning dangerously to the left. (L'Aquila, Italy.)

Ivan Kupala deja vu: It's Ivan Kupala Day (Feast of St. John the Baptist) in Ukraine, so put on your peasant garb and jump over a hot fire with someone you love. But wait, you say, wasn't it just Ivan Kupala Day two weeks ago in Day in Pictures? Ah, yes, but that was Orthodox Belarusians' celebrating the holiday on June 24. They haven't yet upgraded to that newfangled Gregorian calendar.
