To mark International Darwin Day and to celebrate the famous Salopian scientist Charles Darwin, our Agriculture and Environment staff launched an intra-university photography competition, where students could win a £50 Amazon Voucher.
The brief was: ‘intellectual bravery, perpetual curiosity, scientific thinking, hunger for truth.’
In the run-up to the occasion, we shared an entry a day on our social media platforms, and the winner of the competition is to be announced soon!

The Hyena is to many people repulsive, disgusting and cruel. To go against what people perceive them to be, to me Hyena are a true embodiment of Darwin’s most famous phrase “Survival of the fittest” #InternationalDarwinDay pic.twitter.com/nIiE1Orugl
