30 Of The Best Shots From The 2020 BigPicture Natural World Photography Competition

[left-of-center2012]

When the California Academy of Sciences announced their 2020 BigPicture Natural World Photography competition, they asked the photographers to send their work that "will both celebrate and illustrate the rich diversity of life on Earth and inspire action to protect and conserve it through the power of imagery." Now that the contest is over and the results have been announced, it's safe to say that the call was answered.

These best images originally appeared on bioGraphic, an online magazine about science and sustainability and the official media sponsor for the competition, with captions written by the bioGraphic staff.
