While chances are you have, if you haven't heard of the whole selfie phenomenon by now, allow me to explain.
A selfie is a photo one takes of one's self using the front-facing camera on their phone. Many people take selfies at the gym to show how fit they are, or when they're feeling extra pretty to boost their self-confidence and show the world that they are feeling fine!
Whether or not you're a fan of the selfie, you have to admit it's nice to have an option to snap a photo of yourself when there's no one else around to do so. There are those moments that are oh so worth capturing when you're out on your lonesome and there is no other option outside of a selfie.
These 13 folks found themselves in that position with some animal friends. They all took out their phones and snapped quick selfies with some friendly wild creatures who were mostly more than happy to take part in all the fun.
Some of these folks even got a bit more than they bargained for!

This little cow's a bit camera shy.

I know what this penguin is thinking, and it's not very welcoming to the tourists taking a selfie with him! Being a penguin on this beach must be like being a celebrity.

When a kangaroo comes a-knockin', you take a selfie, of course!
