Professor Zoe Davies, of the Durrell Institute of Conversation and Ecology (DICE), has won an award in the annual British Ecological Society photography competition.
Professor Davies was chosen as the winner of the ‘Dynamic Ecosystems’ category for her image entitled Salmon Run of a brown bear catching a sockeye salmon in Alaska, USA.
Her photograph was chosen by an independent judging panel made up of five renowned ecologists and award-winning wildlife photographers.
The winning images from across the competition will be exhibited at the ‘Ecology across Borders’ conference that runs 11-14th December in Ghent, Belgium.
The conference brings together 1,500 ecologists from around 60 countries to discuss the latest advances in ecological research across the whole discipline.
