We present the best works of the Comedy Wildlife Photography Awards 2021. The competition is now in its seventh year and attracts thousands of photographers from all over the world. Everyone wants to show the funniest moments from the life of animals!

The true story of David and Goliath!

The bald eagle missed, trying to grab a prairie dog (this is a small rodent), and she jumped on the bird and surprised her so much that she had enough time to hide in the nearest hole.

"A young lion in the Serengeti National Park, Tanzania, who is obviously laughing at my photography skills."

"What looks like a graceful dance in the photo is actually a fight between two western grey kangaroos. One tried to hit the other in the stomach, but missed."

"Young jumping antelope, Kgalagadi Cross-Border Park in southern Africa. These animals jump to demonstrate their physical fitness and strength, thereby fending off predators and attracting partners. And they also jump when they experience excitement and joy!»

The picture was taken in the Caribbean Islands, in Curacao. These fish of the Kuzovkov family do not like to be photographed – they let divers to themselves, but as soon as you show interest in them, they immediately turn their back on you.

"I made a clever move: I swam over the fish at a distance of half a meter, trying not to scare it, and the camera was not in front of my hands, but at the bottom of my chest, and pointed down. Look at those big mouths!»

"These penguins were riding the waves and they looked so happy."

"The fish seems surprised to be trapped by a fishing bird."

"I took this picture when I was photographing a group of colorful starlings sitting in a tree in the Ritvlei Nature Reserve in South Africa. It perfectly reflects my mood on Monday mornings."

"The picture was taken in Southwestern Ontario, Canada. Raccoons, who live in a hollow tree with their entire large family, are extremely curious. Babies are constantly trying to get out and explore the world, but the mother rams them back."

"The Yellow Deer struggled to get into a comfortable hunting position. I took this picture when she was between two lotus stalks."

"Baby hippo wanted his mother's attention, and he tried his best to get it."
