During this time, they will have up to three winning images in print, be promoted in Canadian Geographic’s masthead, have opportunities to shoot on assignment and more! We also have four category winners and runners-up, who will also have their images published in our November/December 2025 issue.
As always, we’re looking for your best shots of wildlife in Canada — plus non-animal wildlife! The Canadian Wildlife Photographer of the Year will be selected from among entries to all four categories.

Sea kayaking, wildlife viewing & Indigenous exploration
Departing Aug. 11, 2025 There are few animals that elicit such a sense of awe as the killer whale. And there is no better place in the world to see them than in the famed Johnstone Strait and Broughton Archipelago off the remote, northeast coast of Vancouver Island. A land of deep, glacier carved channels, snow-capped peaks and lush coastal rainforest, this is the ancestral home of the Kwakwa̱ka̱’wakw people. |
|
|
| | | Their iconic art, ancient totem poles and indomitable spirit are imprinted throughout this wild and beautiful place.This special edition six-day tour combines the best of the North Island. We spend three days kayaking the Inside Passage and some of the most wildlife rich waters in the world, on the look out for orca and humpback whales, Steller sea lions, dolphins, sea otters and more. |
|
|
| We journey into the Great Bear Rainforest on the BC mainland, in search of grizzly bears fishing for salmon. And we take a deep dive into Indigenous culture and history, with a unique invitation into the lives and land of the Kwakwa̱ka̱’wakw people. |
