Daniel, a 6-year-old male, lives with his father Tiram who is 26-years-old, mother Kayla, older sister Kitra and unrelated Kerawaka in The RainForest. Their diet consists of primate biscuits, bananas, apples, carrots and greens.

Can anyone answer me this... If you submitted phots in earlier months, are they only eligible the month you turn them in for the "pic of the month"? Also, is there a way to confirm your photos were received?
Thanks!!
From,
An eager entrant!!

Alisha and Jamey,

"Pic of the Month" winning photos are chosen by the month they are delivered to the Zoo. They are only eligible that month. However, all photos are eligible for the main Photo Safari contest prizes. Good luck!
