Youngqing Bao / Wildlife Photographer of the Year
To immortalize this moment as magical as dramatic (poor marmot anyway …), Yongqing Bao had to arm himself with his best camera but also patience. This allowed him to be awarded the Wildlife Photographer of the Year Award 2019, Tuesday, October 15 at the Natural History Museum in London.
A long list of laureates from different categories compete each year to see who has been able to sublimate the beauty of the natural world in the best of ways.

This year, it is this cunning and reckless Tibetan fox and poor groundhog taken unawares in the Qilian Mountains Nature Reserve in China, who win the prize. "Photographically, it's just the perfect moment," Roz Kidman Cox, chairman of the jury, said in a statement. "The images of the Tibetan Plateau are already quite rare, but capturing such a powerful interaction between a Tibetan fox and a groundhog, two species essential to the ecology of this high grassland region, is extraordinary."
