Comedy Wildlife Photography Awards – 2015

Photography – Comedy Wildlife Awards

Did you know there was a wildlife comedy award for photographers? I’ve heard of a number of National Geographic photography contests and awards, but wildlife comedy?

Well, here are some of the submissions:


THE WINNER
– This little “fella” has a full mouth with pouches stuffed nearly to capacity. Perhaps they ordered out for dinner and s/he is running home with the delivery

These two aren’t monkeying around. They are obviously getting ready for Dancing with the Stars!

 

Laughing Seal

I guess you’d be laughing too if people stopped to take pictures of you just chillin’!
