Animals really are the best, don't you agree?

Even though entries are still being accepted for the 2017 Comedy Wildlife Photography Awards, the judges have decided to keep everyone entertained by giving us a peek at some of the funniest entries they have received this year so far. 

The contest has such a hilarious approach but it's not all about the fun. Photographers Paul Joynson-Hicks and Tom Sullam founded it as way to highlight wildlife conservation efforts as well.

"The last two years have seen some fantastic entries," they said. "We want to see even more animals represented than before. Go out and photograph, wherever you are... a squirrel could win the competition. We want to raise awareness of conservation of all animals all over the world, so wherever you are, take pictures of those wilder things!"

The deadline is 20th September, which is quite far as of now, and so many hilarious shots yet to come. But, I feel like the ones that have already been submitted also need some attention because they actually are hilarious and incredible at the same time. 

Also, side note : all of these have the potential of being the newest meme. People of the Internet, get on it.
