The wet snow was difficult for this coyote, causing snowballs on his coat. Moraine Park, RMNP. 04/17/16 12:27PM. Canon EOS 5DmkIII, Canon EF400mm f/5.6L USM, 1/4000s@f/8, ISO 400, lens focal length 400mm.

From the coyote's perspective, the accumulated snowballs on his coat were a burden he wished to discard. In nature, it's the equivalent of junk. I would note the many DNMC votes. Voters were evidently thinking very narrowly for this challenge. It's too bad there isn't more tolerance and acceptance of out-of-the-box thinking.
I admit I'm not inclined to photograph human trash, so it is my responsibility to go another way, in a lighthearted manner.

It's a metaphor.
Post voting: My interpretation of a challenge is my prerogative. I don't need a sermon about conforming to a consensus. There is a lot of intolerance around.
