They also like to award really funky wildlife images. Both these reasons put together encourages photographers to bend and massage the rules a bit to achieve a winning image, mainly by compositing. How they end up with a valid RAW image, which must be submitted for scrutiny for the final round of judging, in many cases is beyond me, though!
