Yes. The EOS R6 uses the RF lens mount that this lens has. I haven't done much in wildlife photography. I can use 1/200 to 1/300 shutter with 400-800 iso for the most part in daytime for what I shoot. It is very good for reasonably still wildlife shots like deer, heron and perched birds. I'm not very skilled in tracking birds in flight, which I imagine a faster shutter would be desired. Would it be good for your purpose? The RF 600mm F/4L $12,999 or the RF 100-500mm f/4.5-7.1L $2,799 would be better pro level options. But, if willing to push iso levels, the extra reach and cost savings may be just the right balance to be good.
