An aardvark emerges from its burrow after midnight. Aardvarks use their powerful claws to dig burrows they may use only a short time. Once they move on, other animals move in. Photographer Frans Lanting and his team pursued leads around the valley, setting up camera traps at aardvark burrows only to discover that the inhabitants were warthogs, porcupines, or even pythons. One day Lanting spotted fresh claw marks at a burrow and immediately set up a remote rig nearby. The next morning his camera held this image of one of Africa's most elusive animals.
