EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from November 1989, we see Penscynor Wildlife Park owner Idris Hale holding a stunning blue and gold macaw. This particular bird closely resembles Micky, a six-month-old macaw that has unfortunately gone missing from the park. Valued at an impressive £600, the search for Micky is on. Determined to bring back their beloved avian resident, Mr. Hale has devised a clever plan to entice Micky's return. He intends to showcase the young macaw's parents in a specially designed cage as bait. With hopes of triggering Micky's natural instincts and familial bond, this strategy demonstrates both Mr. Hale's ingenuity and unwavering dedication to his wildlife park. The photograph not only captures the striking beauty of these exotic creatures but also serves as a reminder of the vibrant attractions offered by animal parks during the 1980s in Neath, Wales. Wildlife enthusiasts flocked to such establishments for an up-close encounter with fascinating species like this blue and gold macaw. As we delve into history through Memory Lane Prints' collection, let us appreciate the efforts made by individuals like Mr. Hale who tirelessly work towards preserving our planet's diverse wildlife population while providing educational experiences for visitors of all ages.
