Nature is often, but not always, elegant.
Animals have their own awkward moments, and it’s pretty relieving to see that even graceful creatures have their own moments of hilarity.
The 2025 Nikon Comedy Wildlife Awards likes to celebrate the lighter side of nature, and the many finalists have come through with some charming and humorous moments.
