The funniest photos of 2025 from the world of wildlife

 

 

A young male gorilla, photographed dancing and waving, in Rwanda's Virunga Mountains, has been announced as the winner of the top prize in this year's Nikon Comedy Wildlife Awards.

The photo, taken by British photographer Mark Meth-Cohn, not only won the grand prize, but also the prize for the mammal category.

Meth-Cohn had spent four days trekking through the difficult terrain of Virunga in search of gorillas when his efforts were rewarded with a rare and humorous moment. A young gorilla appeared in his lens, seemingly enjoying the attention, performing acrobatic movements that resembled dancing.

Organizers said it was a record year for the annual wildlife photography competition, with more than 10,000 entries from 109 countries, and the winners were announced at a ceremony in London on Tuesday evening.

After an initial selection, the jury narrowed the number of photos to 40 finalists, from which the overall winner and category winners were chosen. The competition included seven categories, including those for reptiles, insects and fish, as well as a category for young photographers. Meanwhile, the Public Award is open for online voting until March 1.

Among the other winners, Grayson Bell, 13 years old from the United States, stood out, who won the Nikon Junior Photographer Award and the prize for the reptiles, amphibians and insects category with the photo "Baptism of an unwilling convert", which depicts two frogs fighting in the water.

Meanwhile, Paula Rustemeier from Germany was announced the winner of the Nikon Young Category (for photographers under 25 years old) with the photo "Hit the dance floor", which shows playful foxes, one of which appears to be lying face down.

“This year’s winners use joy, skill and imagination to capture the natural world. Mark’s winning image perfectly represents the playful spirit of wildlife,” said Stefan Maier, Senior Marketing Director at Nikon Europe.

The winning and finalist photographs are on display at gallery@oxo in London until December 14, offering the public a humorous and sensitive look at the wildlife.
