The Natural History Museum Basel presents 2019's best wildlife photographs of the year. Breath taking landscapes, surprising animal portraits and dramatic spectacles of nature allowed you to immerse yourself in the beauty and magic of nature.

'Wildlife Photographer of the Year' is the world's biggest and most prestigious competition for nature photography. Each year, the photographs set new standards against which animal and nature photography are measured.

'Wildlife Photographer of the Year' is owned and developed by the Natural History Museum, London.

Once more, the museum keeps ready a very special Christmas present. But this winter, visitors can not fly through the air, but dive with 'Birdly'.

As turtle Rhea you swim through a beautiful, colourful coral reef that bursts with life. But the idyll comes to an abrupt end when the destruction of this fragile ecosystem due to climate change and pollution becomes visible. For the first time, humans can perceive the impact of their behaviour on the underwater world from the perspective of a marine dweller.

A special Virtual Reality headset makes it possible to see three-dimensional. But only in combination with the simulator called 'Birdly' you dive properly as soon as you move your turtle body with your arms and legs. This is how you determine where and how fast you swim and what you want to see up close.

This impressive experience is made possible by the Zurich company Somniacs with their ingenious flight simulator 'Birdly'. He will be at the museum until 12 January 2020.
