We are very excited to see the entries are coming in... make sure we have yours by the 18th October, the end of #biologyweek. Help us to celebrate animal behaviour. 🦧🦩🐸🕷️🦋
This 2025 competition is for young people to design a poster that contains images and information about the animal behaviour of one, or multiple species of non-human animals. You can draw, paint, sketch or digitally create artwork that captures, describes and explains the behaviour of animals. There are no restrictions on the type of drawing, painting or poster that you create, it must include information on the behaviour of the animals you are highlighting. The winning infographic in each category will be published in our scientific journal Animal Behaviour.
