EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us back in time to the enchanting world of London Zoo in November 1915. The image showcases a remarkable creature known as the Weids or Big-eared Opossum, perched gracefully on a branch. Captured by Frederick William Bond, an esteemed British photographer, this historical print is a testament to his skillful artistry and dedication to capturing the beauty of wildlife. The Zoological Society of London proudly presents this stunning piece from their collection. The Big-eared Opossum steals the spotlight with its distinctive features - large ears that seem almost disproportionate to its petite body. This side view allows us to appreciate every intricate detail of this marsupial's unique appearance. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing photograph, we are reminded of the rich diversity found within our natural world. Mammals like these remind us that there is so much more waiting to be discovered beyond what meets the eye. Bond's masterful use of photography adds a timeless quality to this image, transporting us back over a century ago while still allowing us to marvel at its beauty today. This awe-inspiring snapshot serves as both a visual delight and an educational tool for those interested in zoology and animal conservation alike. Let it serve as a reminder that even amidst bustling cities like London, nature's wonders can be found if we take the time to look closely enough.
