EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to August 1978 at Longleat Safari Park in Wiltshire. The image captures a poignant moment as Nicole, the magnificent three-ton rhino, undergoes the removal of her horn with a saw. The photograph serves as a stark reminder of the ongoing battle against illegal ivory trade and poaching that has plagued these majestic creatures for decades. As the saw slices through Nicole's horn, it symbolizes both hope and despair - hope for her safety and despair over the relentless demand for ivory. Amidst this somber scene, we witness the dedication of zoo keepers who work tirelessly to protect endangered species like Nicole. Their commitment is evident in their careful handling of tools and their unwavering determination to ensure her well-being. This snapshot also provides us with a glimpse into safari parks during the 1970s when conservation efforts were gaining momentum worldwide. It reminds us how far we have come in our understanding and appreciation for wildlife preservation since then. As we reflect on this powerful image, let it serve as a call to action - urging us all to continue fighting against illegal wildlife trafficking while cherishing these incredible animals that grace our planet.
