Contests

We love contests! Here are the ones we are running right now.

Urban Wildlife Photo Contest

Send us a photo of wildlife around your home (do NOT endanger yourself!), and you will be entered in a draw to win the book The Smartest Animals on the Planet by Dr Sally Boysen. Email your photo, name, address, and age, to contests@yesmag.ca.

The Case of the Missing Chocolate Bar

See this chocolate bar? It’s hiding somewhere in the Nov/Dec issue. But it’s much smaller. Tell us the location and you could win a real chocolate bar. (And not a teeny weeny one, either.) Email your name, address, and the location of the bar, to contests@yesmag.ca.

Read and Win

Thanks to those who answered the skill testing questions from our Cycling Science issue [Sep/Oct 2009] and congratulations to the winner, Derek C. from North Carolina. Watch for another contest based on our Nov/Dec issue in the next couple of weeks.

Comic Captions

Don’t forget about the Comic Captions! Take a look at the latest photo on page 30 and think of a caption. The funnier, the better! The funniest will be published and all entrants will have a chance to win a t-shirt and book prize. Email your caption, name, address, age, and t-shirt size to contests@yesmag.ca.

Brain Bumpers

Yet another chance to win a t-shirt and book. Send us the answer to one or both of these questions: Why is Jupiter called the bully of the solar system? Why can owls twist their heads all around? All correct answers will be entered in the draw. Email your answers, name, address, age, and t-shirt size to contests@yesmag.ca. Entries must be received by October 2, 2009.

Find the Critters

Okay, this isn't really a contest, more like a challenge. These five critters are hidden in every issue of YES Mag. It seems not many can find all five. Can you? If you do, let us know where they are: letters@yesmag.ca.
