**This contest is sponsored by the Go Take a Hike Photography Group; any images submitted should represent things that one may find out on the trail, in a natural setting – unless contest rules specifically allow exceptions.**






Contest Logo: That’s Tasty – An American Bison licks its chops after snacking on some grasses in Colorado, USA.



Show us a scene where the subject is type of wild animal that is sticking its tongue out, following these rules:


1. Photography Only. No post-processing digital alterations other than basic edits and black and white conversions, and no digital painting, mixed media, selective color, false backgrounds, added graphics or text allowed. No drone photography, aerial photography or trail camera shots allowed.


2. Your subjects must be WILD animals. Their tongues must be obviously sticking out and clearly visible outside of their mouths. Any kind of WILD animal is acceptable, as long as the tongue is clearly sticking out. See contest logo for an example.


3. Your images must be of natural objects captured in natural environment. Farm, domestic, captive, rescue, rehab, zoo animals and pets are NOT allowed. People or man-made objects are NOT allowed. Any images taken in any kind of farm, zoo, aquarium, wildlife rehab center, museum, garden, yard, neighborhood, marina, or built-up areas are NOT allowed.


4. As always, there is ABSOLUTELY NO VOTER SOLICITATION ALLOWED in any Go Take a Hike Photo Group contest. Please allow your images to speak for themselves! Also, no position-bumping. If you submit images, then leave them where they are. Pulling and resubmitting to get your images to the front will result in your images being removed.
