There is a website called dpreview that can be used to compare various cameras...

Honestly, you can probably save a LOT of $$$ by researching what you need (if you aren't a sophisticated user a lot of features will not be needed) and then buying a used camera a couple of years old. Cameras depreciate like crazy

I would look for a camera with great optical zoom...and then do some online courses on wildlife photo composition and spend your effort learning how to compose great pics..

Something like this is about $100 used
