EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in this vintage print from 1973, we see the inseparable duo of Mr Hugh Palmer and his identical twin brother George, proudly standing side by side as co-owners of Cardiff Zoo. Nestled near Barry in the picturesque Vale of Glamorgan, Wales, this charming zoo was affectionately known as Barry Zoo among locals. The brothers' shared passion for animals and entertainment led them to create a haven where visitors could marvel at nature's wonders. In this heartwarming image, the Palmer twins are joined by Caroline, a majestic 15-year-old Indian elephant who became one of the beloved stars of their zoo. Towering over her human companions with grace and power, Caroline epitomizes the awe-inspiring beauty that Cardiff Zoo aimed to showcase. The bond between these siblings is palpable; their mirrored features and synchronized movements speak volumes about their unbreakable connection. Together, they dedicated themselves to providing joy and education to countless visitors who flocked to witness the enchantment within Cardiff Zoo's gates. This snapshot not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to the dedication and vision that Mr Hugh Palmer (left) and his twin brother George poured into creating an unforgettable experience for all who ventured through their zoo's doors.
