Second Place
Tui De Roy National Wildlife
"Feeding Frenzy: Brazil's Caimans" Under the cloak of darkness in the world's largest wetland, photographer Tui De Roy experiences a chilling feeding frenzy as these caimans fan out and feed on fish swimming to them in the current. Caimans, a smaller relative of the American crocodile, are one of six crocodile species found in South America. These were photographed in the Pantannal, a 40,000-square-mile, land-locked basin in the steamy interior of southern Brazil.
