Contest: Coastal Bend Wildlife Photo Contest Description: The mission of the Coastal Bend Wildlife Photo Contest, a 501(c)(3) non profit organization, is to create an atmosphere of cooperation among businesses, private landowners, and wildlife photographers, where all participants benefit while promoting the conservation and protection of wildlife and habitat. This unique collaboration promotes awareness of the need for conservation and protection of the wildlife and habitat in newly expanded fourteen counties surrounding Corpus Christi, Texas. Funding is made possible by individuals and businesses that want to preserve the beauty of their community through sponsorships. Landowners and Photographers compete as teams and share equally in the significant prize money. Additionally, they promote wildlife conservation while participating in the most challenging wildlife photo contest in the world.

Wildlife prospers as private landowners play a crucial role in the conservation of wildlife by providing diverse and well-managed habitat.
