How WLIFE contests work

  • For Club members

    The monthly contest is for WLIFE Club members: entries included every month, then credits that never expire. The big contest is open to everyone, with its own paid entries.

  • Ethics first

    Wild, free animals only: nothing captive, staged or baited. No harm, no disturbance of nests or dens, no AI.

  • You keep your copyright

    WLIFE only displays your entry, with your name, for the contest and its promotion.

  • Entries

    Club: 5 monthly entries included; Lifetime: 10. Up to 10 photographs per contest, judged in your skill level.
