Britain's Mammal Society recently announced the winners of its animal photo competition.

The purpose is to bring attention to mammals that are often overlooked or under-appreciated, like rats, squirrels and foxes.

A perfectly timed image of a brown rat jumping into the air took first place. A fox licking a window nabbed second.

Leaping dolphins, laughing grey seals and deer were featured in the other finalists' photographs.
