Hosted yearly by the Pure Historical past Museum, the competition is understood for showcasing the drama, humor, and harsh realities present in each a part of the globe.
This yr’s shortlist features a pair of photos taken for the time being massive cats catch their prey, together with a number of tussles, one between bees and one other with an irritated lioness and her overeager mate.
