iN PHOTOS: Funny wildlife moments in Thompson-Okanagan Part Two

There doesn’t appear to be a shortage of wild animals doing funny things in Kamloops and the Okanagan this summer, and thanks to photographers in the area these special moments are caught on camera for everyone to enjoy. 

Last week, our collection of funny photos included a Looky Lou marmot and a randy ruddy duck.

More comical photo submissions have come in to create this second amusing collection.

We’d love to add your funny wildlife photos to the collection, please send them to news@infonews.ca.
