See a Fox Spook a Marmot and More Award-Winning Wildlife Photographs

SMITHSONIAN.COM | Oct. 18, 2019, 5:38 p.m.

The scene looks like something straight out of “Loony Tunes”: a snarling fox executes a successful sneak-attack on a marmot frozen in the most terror-filled Heisman pose nature’s ever seen.

The image, captured by Chinese photographer Yongqing Bao, is titled “The Moment,” and it’s one of the London National History Museum’s Wildlife Photographer of the Year winners. Now in its 55th year, the contest received more than 48,000 entries from 100 different countries. Judges narrowed the pool down to 19 winners in 18 categories.

“The Moment” attracted meme-worthy acclaim on social media for its comedic value, but sadly, the marmot in question died a few moments after the image was taken, says museum spokesperson Zoe Summers in an email to the New York Times’ Liam Stack.

“I can confirm that sadly the marmot didn’t survive,” Summers wrote. “The fox was successful in the attack and was able to feed some very hungry cubs!”

Bao was a joint winner in the mammal behavior category. Other categories include animals in their environment, animal portraits, earth’s environments, underwater, invertebrates and wildlife photojournalism.

One hundred images from the contest will be displayed at the South Kensington institution in London beginning today. Entries for next year’s competition can be submitted as of Monday, October 21.

It took Audun Rikardsen three years of strategic planning and waiting to capture this image. With his camera fastened high in a tree with a motion sensor attached, he hid a short distance away and waited. And waited. Then, one day, a golden eagle grew used to the camera and began treating the branch as a look-out. In northern Norway, where the image was captured, golden eagles can be found on the coast, where they scavenge for prey ranging from fish to foxes.

Two male Dall’s sheep spar in the midst of a snowstorm. French photographer Jérémie Villet spent a month trailing the sheep during the animals’ rutting season. This image was taking while Villet was lying down in the snow, fighting against the fierce wind. The sheep’s battle ended in a draw when the blizzard proved too hazardous to withstand.

German photographer Stefan Christmann captured this image of more than 5,000 male emperor penguins huddling to protect each of their delicate eggs. To snap the shot, Christmann braved the chilly -40 degree Fahrenheit weather on the sea ice of Antarctica’s Atka Bay, in front of the Ekström Ice Shelf.

In the Torres del Paine region of Patagonia, Chile, a puma snags a guanaco. German photographer Ingo Arndt had spied the puma earlier, and the two had become comfortable with each other throughout the day. Arndt had the assistance of two trackers armed with binoculars and radio to keep the puma in sight. The puma spent 30 minutes creeping up on its prey before launching the attack.

A colony of nomadic army ants constructs a brilliant new home for its queen. American photographer Daniel Kronauer watched as the insects used their own bodies to string links of ant chains, creating the scaffolding of their temporary home. Called a bivouac, the structure—almost resembling a crown—is certainly fit for a queen.

Italian photographer Manuel Plaickner followed the mass springtime migration of common frogs in South Tyrol, Italy, to capture the amphibians emerging from their winter hideaways and laying eggs. Each frog can lay up to 2,000 jelly-capsuled eggs. The frogs call most of Europe home, but local populations have suffered declines due to habitat loss, disease and pollution.

New Zealand’s Cruz Erdmann is just 14 years old. He was on an organized night dive in the Lembeh Strait off North Sulawesi, Indonesia, when he captured this fantastic photo of a bigfin reef squid. He had initially spotted two squids mating, but one took off before he snapped his lens. This one hung back, becoming the star of the show.

Indian photographer Ripan Biswas was stalking a red weaver ant colony in the subtropical forest of India’s Buxa Tiger Reserve, in West Bengal, when he spotted this critter. It, however, is not an ant—although it sort of looks the part, especially from a distance. Behold the ant-mimicking crab spider. The tiny predator deceives its prey with an evolutionary disguise before swooping in for the kill.

Historically Europe has struggled to protect its wildlife, and particularly its tree and scrub coverage. The loss of wild places across the continent has warped the popular imagination with respect to what constitutes wilderness. In many countries in Central and Eastern Europe now there is a strong rewilding movement, forging extensive National Parks and protected areas untouched or ignored by developers. Predictably, wildlife soon returns in earnest. The Hohe Tauern National Park in Austria is one such place, home now to previously extirpated endangered birds of prey. Key to these returns is the presence of Alpine Marmots, ever wary of airborne threats. @marmot @rewild @hohetauern_nationalpark @travel.in.austria #marmot #alpinemarmot #alpine #alps #austria #austrian #centraleurope #hohetauern #europeanwildlife #mountains #mountainwildlife #wild #wildlife #wildlifephotography #grossglockner #tirol #tyrol #conservation #rewilding #chrismilliganphoto https://www.instagram.com/p/CPgz2zkgruS/?utm_medium=tumblr

The Haunting Beauty of a Hut-to-Hut Hike in the Dolomites

With travel restrictions in place worldwide, we’ve launched a new series, The World Through a Lens, in which photojournalists help transport you, virtually, to some of our planet’s most beautiful and intriguing places. This week, Mónica R. Goya shares a series of photographs taken on an extended hike through the Dolomites.

Last August, long before the coronavirus pandemic descended across Italy, I set off on a hike following the Alta Via 1, a long-distance footpath that traverses the Dolomites from north to south.

A monumental mountain range in northeastern Italy, the Dolomites — a World Heritage Site since 2009 — are home to some of the world’s most majestic scenery: colossal vertical limestone walls, gloriously green valleys. There are several Alta Via routes, but the AV1, with fewer exposed sections, is ideal for less experienced hikers.

The trail runs south from Lago di Braies, a chilly Alpine lake in South Tyrol, to Belluno, a town in Italy’s Veneto region. The first few miles include both a ferocious ascent up a slope covered in scree and broad views of a vast plateau — a fitting preview of the striking contrasts to come.

The trail’s northern terminus lies less than 20 miles from the Austrian border, and many villages in its vicinity have both an Italian and an Austrian name — a reminder of the region’s linguistic peculiarities. (In addition to speaking Italian and German, many residents of the Dolomites also speak a language called Ladin.)

Over the course of my nine-day hike, the trail — mostly well marked — snaked its way up jagged bare peaks in picturesque formations: pinnacles, spires, towers. It also wound through lush Alpine grazing lands and valley floors carpeted with pine and fir trees. Largely because of the beauty of the pale dolomitic limestone, panoramic vistas were a constant.

Idyllic mountain huts, called rifugios, are spaced at day-hike intervals along the trail; there are about 30 altogether. (The 75-mile trek typically takes about 10 days to complete.) The trail reaches a maximum elevation of over 9,000 feet and includes a total elevation gain of more than 20,000 feet — which means that arriving early at the rifugios and catching up on rest often feels more like a necessity than a luxury.

Once, while traversing a stretch of trail on my way to a stunning rock formation called the Cinque Torri, I found myself enraptured by the lofty views of Lago di Lagazuoi, a small mountain lake. But my wonderment didn’t last long: Soon after I sat down, apple in hand, the skies went dark with storm clouds.

Rifugio Lagazuoi, my destination for the night, was visible in the distance and appeared close at hand — less than two miles away as the crow flies. But, finding it separated from me by a very steep descent on switchback paths, plus one last backbreaking ascent, I panicked slightly, realizing there was no way to reach shelter before the storm would break. I pulled out my rain gear and soldiered on.

This mountainous heart of Europe, its trails now evoking sublime grandeur, was once the scene of one of the most treacherous battles of World War I — which is now commemorated at the Open Air Museum of Mount Lagazuoi. Andrea, a re-enactor dressed in a historical Tyrolean Rifle Regiment uniform, led us on a guided tour through various trenches and tunnels, describing how the Italian and Austro-Hungarian armies had turned the mountain into a fortress.

Down in Rifugio Città di Fiume, and back at tree-line level, after leaving behind the picture-perfect Alpine meadows of Cinque Torri, with its scattered sheep, cattle and marmots, the air was heavy with the refreshing scent of pine trees. There, gazing at the dramatic peak of Monte Civetta, I first experienced what a local hiker called “enrosadira,” an exquisite glow that happens at sunrise and sunset, when the dolomitic limestone is bathed in gorgeous peachy-pink hues.

Rifugios come in all shapes and forms, from spartan rustic buildings with cracking wooden floors to charming Alpine mountain lodges. But there are common threads among them — in particular the affable service and the chance to experience camaraderie with fellow backpackers from around the world. Facilities are basic, but most of them have a drying room and a coin-operated hot shower — which runs for two or three minutes, to prevent waste. And, yes, there’s Wi-Fi.

The rifugios are normally open from June to September — and they remain open this year, in spite of the coronavirus. But, since some are now operating at reduced capacity, advanced booking is mandatory. New regulations also require visitors to bring their own sleeping bags, slippers and masks. (In normal circumstances, only a sleeping bag liner is required, as blankets are provided.) And be prepared to have your temperature taken before checking in; hut wardens can deny access if your temperature is too high.

Nearly 150 years have passed since Amelia Edwards, an accomplished English journalist, wrote about being haunted by the Dolomites’ “strange outlines and still stranger colouring.” Much has changed since then — but much has endured, too.

The rhythm of a long-distance trek here — the exhaustion, the challenging simplicity of the routine — washes away mundane worries. Visitors are dwarfed by the ever-changing and imposing surroundings. And, all these years later, the splendor of these unique mountains still enchants, and haunts, those who take to its paths.

My experience with traveling in the South Tyrol

South Tyrol - Landscape scenery Parco Naturale Sciliar Catinaccio (author: Martin Kirschner) If you plan to take a vacation somewhere in the spring, South Tyrol is the right choice. If you visit South Tyrol, so you will be forever remember Mountains, dolomites, beautiful nature, good wine, home-made cheese and Tyrolean bacon. It's almost two years since I visited South Tyrol. Now I have decided to write an article about this country. South Tyrol is a province in northern Italy. It is a part of Tyrol, which was severed from Austria by a peace treaty from Saint-Germain in September 1919 and annexed to Italy. That is why Austrian and Italian culture are mixed. At the high altitudes are living a typical Tyrols with their bright hair and blue eyes. In these places are people speaking mainly German. On the contrary, in the larger cities in the lowlands are living the Italian part of the population which are speaking italian. That's why a person who comes for example out of Bolzano, into some alpine village, then they feels like in another world. In the area are people speaking a total of three oficial languages: 70 % population speaks german, 25 % italian and 5 % latin (retroromain language). Young Tyroleans learn English in schools, so if you control this language, so you can talk to them. For elderly people, but do not expect know English. If you want to go of the South Tyrol, you must first come to Bolzano, which is also its largest city. Bolzano is taken the gateway to South Tyrol. Afterwards, you have two options. Either west across the spa town of Merano towards to the Parco Nazionale dello Stelvio. Or east through the towns of Brixen, Bruneck and then by mountain bus to the south to the mountains and visit one of the four national parks where are the Dolomites and crystal clear lakes lie. As soon as you arrive in Bolzano, consider that this city has only one hostel. It's called Youth Hostel Bolzano, where you will be staying for minimal 22 euros. Another option at a relatively low price is to accomodate at the Catholic school for 33 euros. If they do not even accept you there, because of the full capacity, you have nothing option, then accomodate in the expensive hotel. So before arriving in this city, book your accommodation if you want to the save money.

How did my trip to South Tyrol and what I experienced there:

My way started go on foot from Bolzano on the east towards three national parks. They were parks: Parco Naturale Sciliar Cattinaccio, Parco Naturale Puez Odle and Parco Naturale di Fanes-Sennes-Braies. From Bolzano I  earled in the morning and went east to Tiers, where the above-mentioned national parks began. Was the beautiful spring weather. At my slow pace I went up three days, then one day decline. After four days, I reached to the city Tiers. Then I set out for the first Parco Naturale Sciliar Catinaccio National Park, which I went over in the five days. At the end of this park I reached the Tierské Alps, where I accomoded in a chalet called Schutzhaus Tierser Alpl.

View from the Tiers Alps (author: Martin Kirschner) I do not know how to properly describe Park Parco Naturale Sciliar Catinaccio, but I will try it. The park is located geographically on an extended area at an altitude of about 1,000 to 1,500 meters above sea level. On this area are Dolomites and beautiful blooming meadows. You will not find such a landscape anywhere in the world. It's really wonderful.

Beautiful landscape on the elevated area of the Parco Naturale Sciliar Catinaccio National Park (author: Martin Kirschner) The next two days it took me to arrive in Ortisei, a town in South Tyrol, located in the valley of Val Gardena in the Dolomites. The peculiarity of this city is that of a total  84.19 percent inhabitants (4,663) speaks Latin, which is a Romance language spoken mainly in the provinces of Bolzano, Trento and Belluno. The estimated number of speakers in this language from all world is around 30,000. From the town of Ortisei, I headed for Parco Naturale Puez Odle, which I passed in seven days. Even in this park are the Dolomites. In addition, here you can also meet chamois or marmot.

Landscape in the Parco Naturale Puez National Park Where you can come across muddy or camphos (author: Martin Kirschner) The next three days it took me to get to San Martino In Badia, a renowned ski resort with a number of cable cars nearby. Here you can also lisening the Ladinian language, and even here you will find the center of the ladinian culture "Micurà de Rü" and the medieval castle complex. "Ćiastel de Tor" is also the Museum Ladin Culture. Then I went over a bigger hill and to the one day I has gone to the st.Vigil. St.Vigil is a picturesque village lying at an altitude of 1201 meters at the foot of powerful dolomite giants right on the borders of one of the most beautiful Alpine nature parks of Fanes-Sennes-Braies. Here you will find a number of ski slopes and an annual festival of snow sculptures is held here in January. I stayed in this town for two days and then headed to the park Fanes-Sennes-Braies.

View of the city St.Vigil (author: Martin Kirschner) Fanes-Sennes-Braies Park is registred a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This park covers an area of almost 25,453 hectares. In the east, its territory is bounded by the Höhlensteintal valley; to east st. Vigil in Enneberg, south to St. Kassianu, where he further copied the southern Tyrolean border. It is worthwhile to visit the ladin villages, the so-called Viles, known among others by their original wooden structures. These settlements of several estates were completely self-sufficient in the past. Their inhabitants shared an economic building, a furnace and other facilities together. Also, do not miss a visit to Lake Pragser Wildsee which I also visited. This lake is set in a mountain valley and has crystal clear water with a cyan color. At the lake, there is one hotel called Lago di Braies and a pedestrian crossing for unpretentious tourists around the lake.

Landscape of Pragser Wildsee with crystal clear water. (author: Martin Kirschner) From there I went down from the mountains to the valley of the city Welsberg-Taisten, where I was accomodate at the family hotel Gasser. This hotel surprised me with their hospitality. Hotel was governed by an older lady who served breakfast in traditional Tyrolean costume. For breakfast was all kinds of food were served and cocoa served on request. From Welsberg-Taisten, on foot, I walked on a cycling way to Bruneck where I ended my hiking trip and from there I went by train to Bolzano. In South Tyrol I overall walked about 250 km and it took me about 30 days. While browsing the South Tyrolean countryside, you have the option of dining or try local wine virtually anywhere. Because this country is interwoven with a network of alpine huts, hotels and family restaurants, where is about tourists to take care of it. In addition, this country is among the culinary powers because in 2014 its 19 regional restaurants received 22 michelin stars, which means, that in the culinary industry, this region does not have competition in the whole of Italy. Along the trails of national parks there is a large number of wells to pick up fresh spring water, so you can buy one water just to have a plastic bottle, and you can draw more water to this from the wells, saving you money (that's what I did). One of the interest things I have experienced on my travels with Tyrol was the fact, that almost everywhere in high altitude hotels and cottages is paid after the end of your accommodation. I have never met with that before. This experience gave me a profound impression, that I guess that the Tyroleans are a trusting and honest nation, and apparently it does not happen, that someone has escaped without paying. This trust can be seen in their everyday life, which I had the chance to spend with them for some time.  

People leave the wheels loosely leaning against the wall without fearing that someone is stealing them. (author: Martin Kirschner) I have not seen so helpful people, just like in South Tyrol. I have a lot of experience when I was looking at the map and wondering which way to go on. I have never had to ask for advice, because always someone automaticaly came to me and asked me if I needed to advise or ride a car somewhere. Overall rating of South Tyrol, its culture and people is very positive on my side and I would definitely like to come to this country again. Maybe I again explore South Tyrol to bicycle, because this country is interwoven with a number of cycling routes. Or I'll be back and visit in the west the spa town of Merano and then visiting the Parco Nazionale dello Stelvio, which I have not had the chance to go through.   * The Dolomites (Italian Dolomites, German Dolomites) are one of the mountain massifs of the Italian Alps. It is located in the northern part of Italy, east of the Bolzano basin. The mountain range does not have a single ridge, it consists of many smaller, often very diverse mountain groups. The area is characterized by typical dolomitic elements such as the table top of some massifs, sloping walls, tower peaks, jagged rock crests and almost bizarre shapes of some shields. In the Dolomites there are perhaps all kinds of mountain landscapes - from mountain meadows to rock massifs with glaciers. Source: Wikipedia Click to Post

Lengauer Besinnungsweg 

Beschreibung: Leichte Wanderung

Wissenswertes über die „St. Anna Kapelle zu Lengau“ unterhalb des Großen Pölven und dem damit verbundenen Besinnungsweg. Diese Verbindung (Steig) fungierte früher als Übergang aus dem „Söll-Landl“ in das Inntal. Im Jahr 1664 erfolgte die erste urkundliche Erwähnung der Kirche. Der sakrale Bau steht im engen Zusammenhang mit der Bäderkultur des 17. Jahrhunderts. Zuerst Johannes dem Täufer geweiht, fand 1727 eine Neuerrichtung der Kapelle statt. Auch wählte man eine neue Patronanz, die der „Heiligen Mutter Anna“. 1870 veranlasste Messner Michael Vötter die Vergrößerung der Kirche und das Aufsetzen des mächtigen Dachreiters. 1994 erfolgte eine Generalsanierung unter Pfarrer Josef Gossner. Vor einigen Jahren wurde der „Sunnseit-Weg“ zu diesem Kleinod gemeindeübergreifend erweitert. 2018 erfolgte die künstlerische Gestaltung des Teilabschnittes Schwendt (Itter) durch den Söller Verein „Kunst und Kultur“. An verschiedenen Stationen stellen die Künstler bereits existierende Weisheiten, Sprüche und Gleichnisse mit einer Kombination aus Text und Bild dar.

Wegbeschaffenheit: Teils Spazier- und Waldweg, einzelne Abschnitte auf dem Asphalt (Fahrstraße), Schotterweg Empfohlene Ausrüstung Rucksack, Wander/Bergschuhe, Wanderbekleidung (atmungsaktiv), Wechselbekleidung, Sonnenschutz (Sonnenbrille, Sonnencreme, Kopfbedeckung), Regenschutz (Hardshell), Kälteschutz (Handschuhe und Mütze), Trinkflasche, Verpflegung für Zwischendurch, ev. Wanderstöcke, Erste Hilfe Ausrüstung, Plastikbeutel für Abfall, Wanderkarte/Tourenbeschreibung (GPX-Track)

Anreise, öffentlicher VerkehrAnreise: Die Anfahrt erfolgt in der Regel über die A12 Inntal-Autobahn. Gute 10 km von der Autobahnausfahrt Kufstein Süd und weniger als 10 km von Autobahnausfahrt Wörgl Ost entfernt liegt die Salvistabahn Itter

Hundalm (1637m)

Entfernung: Rundweg ca. 14 Km (1050 hm)

Voraussetzungen: Gute Kondition

CHARAKTER: Das Hundsalmjoch ragt eindrucksvoll nördlich über Mariastein in die Höhe und bietet dadurch einen prachtvollen Ausblick über das Inntal. Ebenso weit nach Süden zum Alpenhauptkamm mit seinen vergletscherten Gipfeln.

Route: Vom ausbeschilderten Wanderparkplatz (Radinger Schottergruben), oberhalb vom Weiler Embach, hinab zur großen Übersichtstafel und von dort entlang der Forststraße zuerst noch in langgezogenen Kehren, zuletzt immer über enger werdende Kehren hinauf zu einem Straßenverzweig (1223 m). Dort rechts in angenehmer Steigung noch kurz durch lichten Wald zu den weiten freien Almflächen oberhalb der Baumgrenze, dort wo man auch alsbald den Almgasthof Buchacker (1450 m) erreicht.

Weiter entlang der Fahrstraße aufwärts in den Sattel zwischen dem Daxerkreuz und dem Aussichtsturm Adlerhorst, dort wo auch nach links der Wanderweg zur Hundsalm-Eishöhle abzweigt. Noch wenige Meter nach Nordosten dem Fahrweg folgen, bevor es leicht bergab geht rechts durch eine Grasmulde den Steigspuren folgend aufwärts in ein Waldstück. Dort durch Waldgelände aufwärts zu einer großen Lichtung, danach wieder durch Latschengelände nach Osten auf das Hundsalmjoch (1637 m) mit dem großen Gipfelkreuz und einer Sitzbank daneben.

Abstieg: Entlang der Aufstiegsroute. Es wäre auch möglich auf schmalem Pfad am Rücken weiter nach Süden abzusteigen wo man dann direkt bei der Daxerhütte rauskommt. Danach direkt unterhalb vom Daxerkreuz am Abkürzungswegs steil nach Süden abzusteigen, wo man dann beim "Buchacker Almweg" Denkmal wiederum in die Forststraße einmündet.
