The Associated Press's 2025 nature photos document wildlife resilience amid human impact, featuring diverse species from polar bears to hummingbirds in global natural settings.

  • The Associated Press assembled its most striking nature images, with photo editing by Courtney Dittmar and Anne-Marie Belgrave, highlighting a world without humans or borders.

  • On the larger scale, images capture a hummingbird poised to sip, a pollen-flecked ladybug, an insect trapped in a carnivorous plant, a humpback whale surfacing, and vultures in India.
