Nikon Comedy Wildlife Awards 2024

With just a few weeks left before the annual Nikon Comedy Wildlife Awards entry period ends, competition organisers have unveiled some of the best submissions so far.

The competition is free to enter until 31 July, and the grand prize winner will earn a safari trip to the Maasai Mara in Kenya and a unique handmade trophy from The Wonder Workshop in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. Complete details and rules are available on the Comedy Wildlife Awards website.

Each year, the Comedy Wildlife Photography Awards team up with a sustainability conservation organisation. This time, the awards are working with Whitley Fund for Nature, a United Kingdom-based charity that supports conservation leaders in the Global South. In three decades, the organisation has invested more than £20 million ($25m) in more than 200 conservationists across 90 countries.

Here's a handful of OGN's favourite submissions thus far...
