EDITORS COMMENTS
In this heartwarming print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to December 1967 at Plymouth zoo, where Mustapha the lion cub has mistaken himself for a guard dog. The innocence and playfulness of this adorable creature is beautifully captured as he engages in a delightful game with one of the zookeeper's sons. With his majestic mane and curious eyes, Mustapha exudes both power and vulnerability. As he frolics around, it is evident that his wild instincts have not fully developed yet. However, what truly makes this image special is the unexpected friendship between Mustapha and the young boy. The bond between animals and children has always been magical, transcending boundaries effortlessly. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness an extraordinary connection formed through trust and pure joy. The basket nearby serves as a reminder that even though Mustapha may see himself as a fierce protector like a guard dog would be, deep down he remains an innocent cub seeking love and companionship. This photograph encapsulates the essence of childhood wonderment intertwined with nature's magnificence. It reminds us that despite our differences - whether human or animal - friendship knows no bounds or species limitations. A timeless testament to cute encounters in unlikely places during simpler times; May it continue to warm hearts for generations to come!
