This photograph captures a fascinating moment at the London Zoo in August 1923. In this historical image, we see a European Toad perched comfortably on top of a Giant/Cane/Marine Toad, creating an unusual sight that is both captivating and intriguing. The young European Toad seems to be enjoying its ride as it sits confidently on the back of its larger companion. The full-length view allows us to appreciate the unique features of these amphibians, with their distinct markings and textures clearly visible. Both creatures are held in captivity within an exhibit, providing visitors with an opportunity to observe them up close. Taken by Frederick William Bond, this photograph showcases his skillful photography techniques from the early 20th century. The composition highlights the side view of the pair while emphasizing their contrasting sizes and characteristics.
