Pangolin Photo Challenge until 31 December 2022


Deadline: 31 December 2022. Welcome to the 2nd Annual Pangolin Photo Challenge!
Throughout the year we will be challenging you to get out and practice your wildlife photography skills. As wildlife photographers, we shouldn’t just wait until we travel…we should be photographing nature wherever we are. This is your opportunity to join in the fun, improve your photography and support our conservation initiative at the same time.

The total photo safari prize fund for 2022 is over $60,000!

There will be plenty of prizes up for grabs for the best images in each challenge, an overall portfolio prize, a people’s vote as well as a lucky draw prize, which you can win a safari, just for entering an image.

The challenges are going to be adjudicated by some of the best wildlife photographers in the world. They will also be sharing exclusive content, advice and photo tips with you throughout the challenge.

To enter the challenge all we ask is that you donate a piece of equipment (via our online shop) to the pangolin rescue and rehabilitation centre that our non-profit Pangolin.Africa, supports. There are plenty of options to buy and all of it is crucial to the rehabilitation efforts.

This is the Pangolin Photo Challenge for Amateur wildlife photographers. There is a separate PRO Challenge with different rules, entry requirements and prizes for Pro wildlife photographers, wildlife photo tour leaders, full time (or freelance) qualified field guides and trackers.
