As a lover of animals, photography and comedy, I just had to include The 2016 Comedy Wildlife Photography awards, which I saw on the Yahoo website. As well as highlighting the humour within the animal kingdom, the awards also serve as highlighting awareness of global conservation efforts. I’ve chosen eight of the most memorable images from the winning entries. Do you have a favourite? You might also be interested to see how they compare to these neatly timed animal shots which I posted a while back.
Angela Bohike spotted this not so Fantastic Mr Fox
Perdita Peltz with a shot of a squirrel that looks like its composing an orchestra.
Adam Parsons took this delightfully timed photo of a ‘winged bear’.
Who couldn’t love this adorable polar bear? Philip Marazzi captured things wonderfully.
Anhup Deodar managed to see this lizard as though ready for action.
There’s always one isn’t there? Mario Gustavo Firoucci took this owl family photo.
Vaughn Jessnitz saw this cheetah following the speed rules.
Rob Kroenert neatly captured this ‘fish out of water’ moment.

Alex – these are great – thx for sharing these – the cheetah is my fav – so cool
A lot easier to photograph when they’re not running haha.
hilarious stuff Alex! thanks for sharing them!
Happy to share them. I had to do a post as soon as I saw them.
Yes, I saw this too. What an amazing idea 🙂 I loved the owl family – trying to figure out ” What the hell just happened” and the attitude of that lizard – “whoa”.
Cheetah one actually seems a bit sad – seeing loved one go away …
I didn’t see the sadness in the cheetah one. I like to think of it as the cheetah getting its breath back or wondering whether it should break the speed limit.
Hmm
Thanks for this.
Happy to oblige.
These are amazing! I think the not so fantastic Mr. Fox is my favorite 🙂
A great photo and a great book.
Alex, what fun! I love this post. Thanks for sharing. The lizard is my favorite, I think.
Like its auditioning for Game of Thrones ha.
HA! Very regal pose.
How adorably cute. Exceptional shots. I’d be hard pressed to pick a favorite because they are all wonderful
I was trying to make it as hard as possible 🙂
Well done! 😜
Wonderful! I love the cheetah contemplating the speed limit. Thanks for sharing these!
Something tells me the challenge was accepted!
I’m sure! 😀
Love all the pictures!! The baby polar bear is just adorable!! I think love the Cheetah and Winged Bear, next!! The Chameleon’s regal pose. Oh!! I like them all!! 😀
I thnk that logic goes for most of us.
Thank for sharing, Alex.
I’m really happy you liked them.
Lovely pics, thanks for sharing, following!

The fox one is hilarious and I love the little baby bear.
Could that bear be any more adorable?
