CHEYENNE — Wyoming Wildlife magazine is calling for your best wildlife photographs from the Cowboy State. Entries are open for the sixth annual Wyoming Wildlife Calendar Photo Contest. Entries will be accepted until midnight June 16. 

Photographers of all skill levels have a chance for their images to be featured in the magazine’s 2026 calendar, which is printed as the November 2025 issue of the magazine. Entrants have a chance to win $100 for a photo selected for the calendar.

“The calendar continues to be one of Wyoming Wildlife’s most popular issues each year,” said Tracie Binkerd, editor of Wyoming Wildlife. “The photo contest gives photographers of all skills and ages a chance to earn one of the 12 coveted calendar spots. Entrants should consider entering images from all seasons to increase the chance of being selected.”

The calendar photo contest accepts photos of wildlife taken in Wyoming, including Grand Teton and Yellowstone national parks. Wildlife includes mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians and fish. Each photographer can submit up to 10 photos. Because winning images will appear in the calendar, only horizontal images or those that can be cropped to the calendar dimensions will be considered for publication. Photos must have been taken by the person submitting the entries and may not infringe on the copyright of others. No entries previously published in Wyoming Wildlife or Wyoming Wildlife calendars may be submitted.

Instructions to enter the contest, rules and more information is available on the photo contest website.
