Photography is, without a doubt, the language of our time. Everyone has a lot of pictures they love, either saved on their computer or printed out and put away to look at later.
It lets us preserve moments and remember things from the past. We can take a trip down memory lane and remember what life was like when we didn’t have to live without the people we loved.
Taking pictures and writing down people’s celebrations is one of the most rewarding hobbies, and people who do it for a living will probably agree that it changes how you see beauty and how you feel about life in general.
The Comedy Wildlife Photography Awards, which everyone loves and looks forward to, are a great example. The annual contest shows how funny nature can be and gives us a chance to appreciate the Earth and its creatures without putting their already fragile lives at risk.
This article gives you a sneak peek at the funniest entries so far this year. Let us know which pictures make you laugh the most.

“Our world is very beautiful and connected, but people are doing everything they can to overuse it and hurt it.” The world is paying more attention to issues of wildlife conservation and sustainability, but the messages and images tend to be negative, depressing, and tiring. On the website for The Comedy Wildlife Photography Awards, you can find a thought-provoking quote from the contest’s co-founder, Paul Joynson-Hicks, that says it all about how important this annual competition is.
Our wildlife is in danger. This is a sad fact that everyone knows. Illegal trade, which is thought to be the fourth-largest criminal industry in the world, our fragile ecosystem, which is destroyed by fires, people who are willing to cut down trees just to build another mall, pollution, and climate change are the biggest threats that are actively destroying Earth.

As humans, we have a responsibility to make the world a better place. The pictures people have sent in show how the world’s beauty is fading and teach people about wildlife and how important it is without showing too many painful pictures.
Those who don’t know much about the history of The Comedy Wildlife Photography Awards may be wondering how and when it started:

Paul Joynson-Hicks was working as a wildlife photographer in East Africa when it all began. The man was looking at his beautiful photos when he saw two that made him laugh: an eagle looking at the camera through its back legs and the bottom of a warthog. The co-founder then realized that this funny way of talking about the dangers wildlife faces would be a good way to get people interested in those dangers.
In 2015, the competition was made official, and soon after, co-founder and fellow photographer Tom Sullam joined the team. Michelle Wood joined a couple of years later.
The organization’s motto is “share the enjoyment of nature and take the time to recognize its value.” Every year, amateurs and professionals from all over the world send them thousands of photographs.
