Wildlife Photographer of the Year Exhibition at the American Museum
December 21 – 10:00 am - 5:00 pm
An event every week that begins at 10:00 am on Sunday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, repeating until 31st December 2024
The Unforgettable Behaviour exhibition showcases 39 photographs from previous Wildlife
Photographer of the Year collections, displaying some of the most incredible animal behaviour moments
ever captured on camera. The photos show an extraordinary range of surprising, and often deeply moving,
acts by animals. They have been chosen to allow visitors to connect with animals they might never
otherwise see and to inspire everyone to care about the world around us. The collection includes the
works of several American photographers, with a total of 17 countries represented, and 35 award-winning
photographers. US photographer, Karine Aigner’s winning photograph for Wildlife Photographer of the
Year 2022 – the remarkable shot of a buzzing ball of cactus bees spinning over the hot sand in Texas – will
be on display.
The exhibition will also feature a range of creative family activities and invitations to play, as well as a Young Person’s Wildlife Photography competition open to all.
