20 Best Award-Winning Photos from the Comedy Wildlife Photography Contest

Looking at the funny side of the animal kingdom, the awards focus on conserving wildlife through competition. Themed around the comical side of animals, these photography contests are held by institutions such as National Geographic and London's Natural History Museum. The silliness of animals is best enjoyed and admired through these competitions. The six contest categories are: Nikon Creatures of the Land, Kenya Airways Creatures in the Air, One Vision Imaging Junior, Amazing Internet Portfolio, Underwater, and Alex Walker Serian’s Video Clips. Contestants may submit only six images and two videos, and each entry must be placed in one of the six categories mentioned above. Working with the Born Free Foundation, an animal welfare charity that aims to “keep wildlife in the wild,” the Comedy Wildlife Photography Awards call attention to the importance of preserving and protecting our planet—one hilarious photo at a time.

Comedy wildlife photography pairs patient fieldwork with perfectly timed animal behaviour. The humour feels affectionate because nature writes the punchline—and photographers merely avoid blinking.
