From more than 60,000 entries submitted by photographers around the globe, the jurors of the 2025 Wildlife Photographer of the Year competition had their work cut out for them. They selected 100 images that tell powerful stories and represent diverse regions and types of animals in a huge range of habitats, including areas heavily impacted by human activity. Now, 24 photographers have the chance to win the contest’s People’s Choice Award, which you can vote for until March 18. Contenders include a cozy baby sloth, polar bears relaxing on a sunny day, baby kestrels about to take flight, and many more.
In addition to casting your vote, visit the Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition at London’s Natural History Museum through July 12. And photographers interested in entering the 2026 contest can submit entries through December 4.
