The 2024 Wildlife Photographer of the Year competition has set a new record this year with an impressive 59,228 entries from 117 countries and territories. Organized by the prestigious Natural History Museum, this annual contest never fails to capture the drama, humor, and harsh realities of the natural world.

Among the shortlisted entries this year are some breathtaking images that showcase the raw beauty of wildlife in its natural habitat. From large cats capturing their prey to intense battles between bees and other creatures, the photos on display truly depict the wonders of the animal kingdom. Noteworthy mentions include Shreyovi Mehta’s “In the Spotlight” and Sasha Jumanca’s heartwarming “Leaving the Nest,” both recognized in the youth category for photographers under the age of 10.

Every year, the winning photographs are exhibited at the Natural History Museum in London. The 2024 exhibition is set to open in October before embarking on a world tour to showcase these incredible works of art.

One of the standout images from this year’s competition is Xingchao Zhu’s “Moonlight Hunter,” capturing a large cat staring directly at the camera as it holds its prey in its paws. Another striking image is Georgina Steytler’s “Centre of Attention,” showcasing bees in a fierce battle for survival.

Ian Ford’s “Deadly Bite” captures the intense moment a jaguar bites into a crocodile, while Jose Manuel Grandío’s “Twist and Jump” shows a stoat jumping high into the air above the snow. Lam Soon Tak’s “Ziggy Spider” features a fuzzy orange spider perched on mossy branches, creating a mesmerizing composition.

Other notable entries include Samual Stone’s “Precious Rocks,” featuring a black jackdaw holding stones in its mouth, and Sasha Jumanca’s “Leaving the Nest,” depicting two fuzzy owls perched on a tree branch. Shreyovi Mehta’s “In the Spotlight” captures two Indian peafowl perfectly surrounded by the canopy of trees at dusk.

Tamara Stubbs’ “Going with the Floe” showcases two seals sleeping amid broken ice floes, while Theo Bosboom’s “Strength in Numbers” features innumerable clams populating a beach near a rocky cove. Thomas Vijayan’s “The Disappearing Ice Cap” highlights the issue of melting ice caps, and William Fortescue’s “Stormy Scene” captures a female lion snarling with a male lion trying to mate with her.

These stunning photographs not only showcase the beauty of wildlife but also raise awareness about the importance of conservation and preserving our natural world. The Wildlife Photographer of the Year competition continues to inspire photographers and nature enthusiasts around the globe, celebrating the diversity and magnificence of our planet’s flora and fauna.
