Animals can be majestic and beautiful, but they are also hilarious at times.
The Nikon Comedy Wildlife Awards celebrate the funniest animal photographs of the year, and they just released this year's finalists.
Started in 2015, the awards aims to use the power of humour to promote wildlife and habitat conservation.
“These images combine wit and wonder to celebrate nature's character, while emphasising the urgency of conservation,” said Nikon Europe senior marketing general manager Stefan Maier.
“At Nikon, we're proud to support a competition that sparks joy, while reminding us why our wild world is worth protecting,” he added.
The winners will be announced at a ceremony on December 9.
