The poll will close in 7 days.
Thanks to @birdsandbats for doing this. Although it should go without saying, I hope all of us who made it in will have enough class not to vote for our own photo.
The results are in! Third Place: Face Plant Young Female Baby White Rhino Lottie at Colchester Zoo @4ways NAP Second Place: Arizona Blonde Tarantula by @Arizona Docent First Place: Tika the North Chinese Leopard by @Neva Thanks to all who voted and have a great 2021!
The winning photo is the one I voted for. The fact that it is a cat makes it even better. Congrats to @Neva and all those who were nominated. Also thanks to all those who are participating in the monthly photo showcase - keep them coming!
@Neva photo was my vote as well and I’m so glad it came out on top, now time for an Academy Award style speech from from the winner So many wonderful submissions to the monthly showcasing and it was a great source for fantastic photos!
Hi @littleRedPanda I'm the Art Editor of Zoo Grapevine & International Zoo News. I've just DM'd you. Please reply. Thanks.
I know, it's March (and my life almost eat me alive), but as I did in previous post in nominations thread, I would like to say some words here! Firstly, thank you very much! I'm moved and so glad that Tika touched so many people! Let the North Chinese leopards be more heard! This year was hard for zoophotography and probably for wildlife could have been also difficult (as travelling is hard/impossible these days), but it's wonderful to see so many unique and great captures! I hope we will have a chance to pursue our passion more as also I will be able to participate more in the 2021 edition Congrats!
A speech aged like a fine wine or my choice of drink, a crispy Dr Pepper I hope the world moves forward in a better way than the last so we can follow our passions and be on the trek for our next great capture
