EDITORS COMMENTS
In this delightful print from Memory Lane Prints, we witness the incredible sight of Myra the hippo enjoying a king-size lunch at Chester Zoo. As she washes down her meal with great gusto, it is evident that Myra's appetite matches her impressive size. However, what truly captivates our attention is the mystery surrounding Myra's three-week-old baby. Despite numerous attempts to get close enough and determine its gender, nobody has been successful thus far. It seems that when it comes to protecting her little one, no one dares challenge the might of three tons of motherly love. The image beautifully captures not only the unique bond between a mother hippo and her offspring but also their playful nature as they enjoy their time in the water. The expressions on their faces are priceless - a mix of contentment and joy. Transporting us back to February 1976, this photograph reminds us of simpler times when families would visit zoos for entertainment and education alike. It serves as a reminder of how animals have always held an important place in our lives, bringing both laughter and wonder. With its blend of humor, relationships, and natural beauty, this print by Mirrorpix showcases the timeless charm of these magnificent creatures while leaving us pondering over the mysteries that lie within their watery world.
