Wildlife Photographer of the Year 2026 in 16 Remarkable Images
An elephant carrying a lost calf, dolphins arranged like a flower and a bear enjoying a backyard pool: the 2026 Wildlife Photographer of the Year selection finds extraordinary stories at every scale. These 16 images from the Natural History Museum’s 62nd competition reward a closer look at animal behavior, shared habitats and the small natural dramas that usually pass unnoticed.
The Aftermath | Federico Veronesi
Namibia’s Huab River Valley is the setting for this difficult, intimate scene: an elephant carries the body of a calf. Veronesi’s photograph received the competition’s 2026 adult grand title. The picture invites attention to elephants’ responses to death, but it does not let us read the animal’s mind. Possible grief is a scientific interpretation, not something a single photograph can establish.
