Bootstrap carousel images compressed vertically in IE

Question

My bootstrap carousel has a fixed height of 32rem and width of 100%. When an image is larger, it shows the middle portion of the image. This works well in Chrome/edge/FF. However, in IE, the image is compressed vertically to show the full image height in 32rem of vertical space. Any ideas on how to fix this?

/* Since positioning the image, we need to help out the caption */
.carousel-caption {

  z-index: 10;

/* Declare heights because of positioning of img element */
.carousel-item {
  height: 32rem;

.carousel-item > img {
  position: absolute;

The picture is compressed because object-fit: cover is not supported by IE . You could use background-size: cover as a workaround.

You could add this part in CSS to deal with the IE 11 situation:

@media all and (-ms-high-contrast: none), (-ms-high-contrast: active) {
    /* IE10+ CSS */
    .carousel-item.active {
        background-image: url(https://armi.usgs.gov/uploads/20200121_111904.jpg);
        background-size: cover;
        background-position: 50% 45%;
     }
     .carousel-item img {
        display:none !important;

     }
}
