The funniest photos of wild animals from the finalists of the Comedy Wildlife Photography Awards 2020

Finally, this moment has come! The Comedy Wildlife Photography Awards Animal Comedy Photography Awards has published a shortlist of finalists. Of all the submitted works, the jury selected 44 photographs depicting funny moments from the life of animals — the best among them will be named on October 22.

This year, a fox leading intense negotiations with a mouse, a smiling fish, a photobombing giraffe and many other wildlife representatives claim to win!

The award quickly won the love of the public, and every year there were more and more people willing to participate. The other day, 44 pictures were published on the award's website — the finalists of this year's photo contest. For another month and a half there will be a public Internet voting, as a result of which the audience award will be selected, and the winner will be chosen by a special jury.
