Zapowiedź: napisana przed otwarciem wystawy
Federico Veronesi followed drag marks along a dry riverbed in Namibia's Huab River Valley and found an elephant carrying her dead calf, its leg wedged between her tusk and trunk. That photograph made him Wildlife Photographer of the Year 2026, and it hangs here with the rest of the year's top 100, chosen by a jury from more than 65,000 entries.
The competition, organised by the Natural History Museum in London, has run every year since 1965. Walk round and you get a dung beetle shoving its load through Zimbabwean dust, a mushroom glowing under UV light and a monitor lizard leaving a Bangkok park lake with a fish. The 10-and-under winner shot hers on her dad's borrowed phone, so your Rhine sunsets have run out of excuses.
Tickets are CHF 19, CHF 9 for under-20s and students under 30, free under 13. Sunday tours at 11:00 and 13:00 are included, no booking needed. The free public opening is Thursday 19 November at 18:30.

The Aftermath, the overall winner
Federico Veronesi's elephant in Namibia carries her dead calf, the small leg wedged between her tusk and trunk.
Labour of Love, the young winner
Oscar Whitfield's dung beetle strains to push its load through dry, sun-baked dust in Zimbabwe's Hwange district.
Shedding Light
Look for the mushroom Mycena renati under UV light, glowing a warm yellow-grey instead of the cold blue of other glowing fungi.
Urban Jungle
A water monitor walks through Bangkok's Lumphini Park with a fish from the lakes, where the lizards roam freely and feed on catfish and koi.
Tiny Dancers
Kutub Uddin's slime moulds: fine threads on round yellow-green bodies only 1 to 2 mm high, growing on dead wood.
