With up to 5,000 entries from more than 85 countries, this year's Comedy Wildlife Photography Awards are back with a variety of images sure to put a smile on your face. The awards were founded in 2015 by professional photographers and conservationists Paul Joynson-Hicks and Tom Sullam to showcase light-hearted photography and the importance of wildlife conservation.
The Comedy Wildlife Photography Awards partner with the Whitley Fund for Nature, and donate 10% of the net revenue from books, calendars and other merchandise to them.
