Tom Sullum, one of the founders of the award, said:
“The standard of photography, based on the quality of the art, increases every year. Humorous moments become more and more unique, along with animals that we have never seen before appearing.”
Tom also said that any photographer can enter the competition and the statistics show that 70% of the participants are amateur photographers.
The meaning of the contest is to spread the beauty of nature and make people pay more attention to wildlife conservation.
