I see a thread for 2023 but not for 2024. The 100 winning images for the prestigious Wildlife Photographer of the Year competition have been announced and are on display at Natural History Museum in London. The annual book (portfolio 34) is also availabe (I just finished it).

Just for fun, I went through the book and tallied how many images are represented by each camera brand. This doesn't necessarily mean anything, as anyone can create good images with any modern camera. Also, some images are portfolios of six shots by the same person using the same system, which skews the overall total in favor of their system. Anyway, here is the tally...

47 Nikon (1 point & shoot, 21 mirrorless, 25 DSLR)
22 Canon (11 mirrorless, 11 DSLR)
15 Sony
7 DJI drone
3 Panasonic
2 Leica
2 Fuji
1 Olympus
1 iPhone

Someone buy the person with the iPhone a drink!
 
I also made such statistics but for the all pictures in the book of Bird Photographer of The Year for camera and for lenses and was very surprised that the trend was direction of using wide angle lens! And yes, also iPhones, Drones and GoPros :D
