image of grizzly bear silhouette triumphs in animal photography contest"},"content":{"rendered":"<p><em>\u00a9 Andy Skillen<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Andy Skillen\u2019s image beat more than 450 other entries in the wildlife photography contest, organised by the Zoological Society of London (ZSL), which runs London Zoo.<\/p>\n<p>Andy captured the photo of a female grizzly bear at the Lake Clark National Park in Alaska.<\/p>\n<p>Commenting on his winning shot, Andy said: \u2018As it was late in the day, and the light was lending itself to a truly spectacular silhouette, I lay down in the water a little way along the beach and waited for her [the bear] to come into shot.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018She dipped her head to search for fish and her back momentarily became part of the mountain range.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018That gave me the split-second I needed to grab the image, and to portray the enormity of the landscape \u2013 and at the same time the all-dominant presence that only a grizzly can impart to a wilderness scene.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>ZSL\u2019s director general Ralph Armond said: \u2018As stories of rare species facing extinction and increasing illegal wildlife trade dominate headlines, the need to raise awareness and celebrate the wonders of the natural world has never been more pressing.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018The ZSL Animal Photography Prize encourages photographers to capture the very essence of the animal kingdom and all that it entails, and the diversity of wildlife portrayed in the entries we\u2019ve received has been so inspiring.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Andy added: \u2018If this image convinces one person that wilderness is soul-fulfilling reality, full of amazing wildlife that needs saving, then I will have achieved everything I wanted to.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Judges included TV presenter Kate Humble and ornithologist Bill Oddie.<\/p>\n<p>An exhibition of the best images is on at London Zoo until 28 February 2016.<\/p>\n<p>For details visit <a
