The 2019 Wildlife Photography Awards were recently announced, and the first prize was "At this Moment" by photographer Bao Yongqing, which featured a small fox and a groundhog, and their movements froze for a moment of fun. Shortly after waking up from hibernation, the marmot was startled by a mother Tibetan fox with three hungry cubs. With a lightning-fast response, the photographer seized the crucial moment — the viciousness of the predator's teeth, the fear of the prey, a thousand shots, life and death.
"Bee Line", French photographer Frank deschandol. As cold-blooded animals, bees take energy from the sun's heat and rest at night and in cold weather.

The Ideal Lair, canadian photographer Jason Bantle, a raccoon peeks out of an abandoned car to observe its surroundings, which is the ideal lair for the raccoon and her five cubs because the only entrance — a hole in the glass — is big enough for her but too small for predators like wolves.
Cold Drink, American photographer Diana Rebman. Long-tailed live in Europe and Asia. In winter, birds must nibble on snow and ice to drink water.

In The Eel Garden, American photographer David Doubilet, garden eels feed on plankton drifting in the current, and if threatened, the garden eels retract back into their burrows. Like many other fish, they pass through the lateral line, a sensory organ that runs through the whole body
