Animals in their natural habitat are always storing hilarious behaviors that sometimes surprise humans still. Many times, experts are still unable to explain why animals act in certain ways, not sure where their instinct ended and their playfulness kicks in. Comedy Wildlife Photography Awards has been holding a photography competition dedicated to funny moments taken in the wildlife for 5 years now. And we've got our finalists to line up here!

Paul Joynson-Hicks and Tom Sullam found this "Conservation through Competition" in order to spread awareness about conservation and love for the wildlife. Paul is the Founder and an inspired wildlife photographer while Tom is the Chair of the Judges and Competition Director and Landscape photographer who have won two awards.

This year, we find the finalists even more hilarious than ever! We from Brighthumanity absolutely love to share the awareness along with these lovely pictures for our readers!
