Imagine capturing the essence of our planet's wildlife in a single image. The 2025 Wildlife Photographer of the Year competition has unveiled a breathtaking selection of 100 photographs, handpicked from a staggering 60,000 submissions worldwide. But here's the twist: it's not just about the judges' opinions. The People's Choice Award is now open for voting, and you get to decide!
These 100 images showcase the beauty and diversity of nature, from adorable baby sloths snuggled up to majestic polar bears basking in the sun. Each photograph tells a unique story, some from regions heavily affected by human intervention. But which image will resonate with the public?
The contest has narrowed down the entries to 24 finalists, and now it's your turn to choose the winner. Voting is open until March 18, and your voice matters! Will you side with the cute and cuddly, or will you champion the raw and powerful?
Don't miss out on this opportunity to celebrate the wonders of nature through photography. And if you're in London, immerse yourself in the full experience by visiting the exhibition at the Natural History Museum before July 12. For aspiring photographers, mark your calendars for the 2026 contest, where you can share your own wildlife tales through the lens.
