Capturing the nature of wildlife at its finest, the London's Natural History Museum have released the winners of the Wildlife Photographer of the Year 2015.

The overall winner of the contest was Don Gutoski from Canada, who captured a very curious sight - a red fox paused in the snow of the Tundra with a smaller arctic fox in its mouth.

The image showed an incident that occurred in Wapusk National Park, where red foxes don't usually hunt arctic foxes, but when their hunting ranges overlap, conflict is bound to happen, reported The Guardian.

What contributed to the hype of the image was the clean white background of snow that put forth the moment in all its glory. The image was aptly named, "A Tale of Two Foxes."

Kathy Moran, a member of the jury for the contest, called it "one of the strongest single storytelling photographs I have seen."

"The immediate impact of this photograph is that it appears as if the red fox is slipping out of its winter coat," Moran, who is also Senior Editor for Natural History Projects at National Geographic added. "What might simply be a straightforward interaction between predator and prey struck the jury as a stark example of climate change, with red foxes encroaching on Arctic fox territory."

After receiving the award, Gutoski told the Natural History Museum that he was "more than overwhelmed," according to CBC News.

Ondrej Pelanek, 14, from the Czech Republic, won the Young Wildlife Photographer of the Year title for his image 'Fighting Ruffs,' taken in Norway. The two winners were selected among 18 others, in categories that ranged from underwater to urban.

The images, along with the rest of the contest winners, will be presented at the 51st Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition, opening at the Natural History Museum on 16 October. After its London premiere, the exhibition embarks on a UK and international tour according to IBTimes UK.
