Life on Earth is unforgiving, as any nature documentary will tell you. But
sometimes, the constant battle to survive is interrupted by an excuse to smile,
or even laugh. Enter the Nikon Comedy Wildlife Awards, which allows
photographers from all over the world to capture moments of levity presented
by Mother Nature herself.

From a three-headed giraffe to a bird taking a gander at a buffalo’s nether

regions, animals as seen through a photographer’s lens are quirky, goofy, and
in every silly way possible, human-like. Without further ado, consider some of
the current entrants in the annual comedy photo awards.
