The CIC Wildlife Photo Prize aims to stimulate observations in the field and an awareness of the aesthetic value of hunting. Another aim is to suggest that the passion for hunting can find an expression in different ways – photography being another facet of a passion for wildlife. The competitions fulfils the function of a link between hunters and non-hunting lovers of wildlife.

The theme of the 2019 photo prize was “Wildlife up close”.
