The Comedy Wildlife Photography Awards was co-founded in 2015 by professional photographers Paul Joynson-Hicks MBE and Tom Sullam who wanted to create a competition that focused on the lighter side of wildlife photography and help promote wildlife conservation through humour.
This year, the competition is supporting Save Wild Orangutans by donating 10% of its total net revenue to the charity. The initiative safeguards wild orangutans in and around Gunung Palung National Park, Borneo.
“We were overwhelmed with the number and quality of entries we received this year, with well over 7,000 photos submitted from every corner of the globe,” says Paul Joynson-Hicks. “It was an amazing turnout, especially given the impact of the pandemic. The huge number of images we receive every year illustrates the appetite there is to engage with conservation and reminds us that wildlife truly is incredible and hilarious and, we must do all we can to protect it.”

I remember you doing this several years, and I always love it when you share these comedic animals.
This is so much fun! I'm going to check out that link now.
My favorites were Too Sexy for the Beach and the monkey riding the giraffe. They were so clever.
Great photos, they make you smile. :)
All so cute!
Bonitas fotos. Besos.
I have quite a few funny animal and bird photos, mainly through the bad photography rather than animals in funny situations. The pigeon with the face mask made me laugh.
