The British Wildlife Photography Awards was founded in 2009 and beyond fostering the talents of wildlife photographers throughout the United Kingdom, it aims to "Raise awareness about British biodiversity, species, and habitats," while encouraging "discovery, exploration, conservation and enjoyment of our natural heritage."
A photograph of an urban fox in Bristol city center has been revealed as the overall winner of the British Wildlife Photography Awards 2025 [BWPA]. Over 13,000 photographs were entered into the prestigious annual competition, attracting both amateur and professional entrants, all vying for the £3,500 grand prize. But it was Simon Withyman's entry (pictured above) that caught the judges' attention and took home top honors. The photograph also won the Urban Wildlife category and depicts a red fox vixen, making her way across a footbridge as high-rise buildings loom in the background.
