The Wildlife Conservation Society is playing favorites, and have released their picks for The 10 Best Animal Photos From NYC Zoos in 2014. Sorry, Golden Lion Tamarin, you didn't make the cut, but it was some tough competition—you were up against an entire herd of Turkmenian flare-horned markhors!
Here they are—hailing from the Bronx Zoo, Central Park Zoo, Queens Zoo, Prospect Park Zoo, and the New York Aquarium—the 10 best photos of New York City’s animal residents. And if you're wondering, the best animal photo from the WCS in 2013 was the one of these zebus—if we were on the judging panel, at least.
