On the cover: On a frigid February day in 2022, a Pallas’s cat strides across a snowy plain in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia. After waiting for hours in a blind, photographer Thomas Vijayan was able to capture this striking portrait, which won an honorable mention in National Wildlife® magazine’s 2022 photo contest.
