EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Animal Hippopotamus February 1983" we are transported back to a moment of both amusement and awe. The image captures the sheer power and playfulness of one of nature's most fascinating creatures - the hippopotamus. As we peer into its world, we witness a comical scene unfold. The setting is a zoo, where our hefty protagonist is preparing for dinner time. With jaws wide open, the hippo takes an enormous bite out of something unexpected - the rear end of a hapless zookeeper! This unexpected twist injects humor into an otherwise routine feeding session. Arthur Sidey skillfully freezes this hilarious moment in time, allowing us to appreciate not only the incredible strength and size of these magnificent animals but also their mischievous nature.

It serves as a reminder that even amidst daily routines like cleaning or feeding, there can always be moments that make us laugh uncontrollably. This delightful piece by Arthur Sidey invites us to relish in lightheartedness and reminds us why zoos continue to captivate our imagination - they offer glimpses into extraordinary encounters between humans and wildlife that leave lasting impressions on our hearts.
