The selection of 42 images make up the final shortlist for the competition, which received more than 7,000 entries from around the world, according to a press release on Wednesday.
据周三发布的一份新闻稿称，本次竞赛收到了来自世界各地的7000多幅作品，最终候选名单由42幅作品组成。

The awards were founded in 2015 by photographers Paul Joynson-Hicks and Tom Sullam, who wanted to promote wildlife conservation through humor, said the press release.
该奖项是由摄影师保罗·约翰逊-希克斯和汤姆·苏拉姆于2015年设立的，他们想通过幽默来促进野生动物保护。
"The huge number of images we receive every year illustrates the appetite there is to engage with conservation and reminds us that wildlife truly is incredible and hilarious and, we must do all we can to protect it," said Joynson-Hicks in the press release.
约翰森-希克斯在新闻稿中说:“我们每年收到的大量图片说明了人们对保护野生动物的渴望，并提醒我们野生动物真的是令人难以置信和滑稽的，我们必须尽我们所能来保护它们。”
"Whittling down the list of photographs was harder than ever this year," added Sullam in the press release.
苏拉姆在新闻稿中补充说:“今年的照片筛选起来比以往任何时候都要困难。”
"It was great to see a range of animals, from the incredibly rare to the humble pigeon."
“能看到各种各样的动物，从极其稀有的动物到很平常的鸽子，真是太棒了。”
Some 10% of the total net revenue from this year's competition will be donated to Save Wild Orangutans, an organization that works with the primates in Gunung Palung National Park, Borneo.
今年比赛净收入的10%将捐赠给拯救野生猩猩组织，该组织在婆罗洲的古隆帕隆国家公园与灵长类动物合作。

In 2020 the overall winner of the competition was photographer Mark Fitzpatrick's picture of a turtle which appears to be giving the camera the middle finger.
2020年，该竞赛的总冠军是摄影师马克·菲茨帕特里克拍摄的一只乌龟，这只乌龟似乎在对相机竖中指。
"I was swimming with this turtle at Lady Elliot Island on the Great Barrier Reef when he flipped me the bird," Fitzpatrick told the competition.
菲茨帕特里克在比赛中说:“我当时正在大堡礁的艾略特夫人岛和这只海龟一起游泳，然后它就朝我摆了这个动作。”
