EDITORS COMMENTS
Keeper, H. Warwick, shares a tender moment with a tiger cub and a peccary at ZSL London Zoo in May 1914. In this photograph by Frederick William Bond, we witness the extraordinary bond between man and wild animals. With utmost care and gentleness, Keeper Warwick kneels in their enclosure, radiating joy as he plays with the fluffy tiger cub. The innocence of youth is mirrored in their playful interaction; it's a heartwarming display of friendship across species boundaries. The presence of the peccary adds an intriguing dynamic to the scene. As prey for carnivores like tigers, these hoofed mammals typically evoke fear rather than camaraderie. Yet here they stand together harmoniously, showcasing the remarkable harmony that can exist within captivity. Captured during the early 1910s, this photograph not only immortalizes an intimate moment but also serves as a testament to our fascination with wildlife throughout history. It reminds us of our responsibility towards these magnificent creatures and highlights the crucial role zoological institutions play in conservation efforts. Through his lens, Bond captures not just a snapshot but also happiness itself – both for those who encounter these majestic animals up close and for those who appreciate their beauty from afar.
