The elephant shoots out her trunk and trumpets a challenge which is a pretty brave thing
The elephant shoots out her trunk and trumpets a challenge which is a pretty brave thing to do. For shes not accustomed to meeting up with creatures twice her size. Happily for her the creature-a prehistoric dinosaur - is only made of fiberglass. It is one of a collection of prehistoric monsters that have been placed in the grounds of Dudley zoo, Worcestershire. September 1974

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from September 1974, we witness a truly courageous moment in the animal kingdom. The image captures an elephant, not accustomed to encountering creatures twice her size, fearlessly challenging a prehistoric dinosaur. With her trunk shooting out and trumpeting loudly, she displays immense bravery in the face of uncertainty. However, as our eyes explore the scene further, we realize that this encounter is nothing more than a playful illusion. The dinosaur before her is merely made of fiberglass - one of many prehistoric monsters strategically placed within the grounds of Dudley Zoo in Worcestershire during that time. The juxtaposition between these two magnificent creatures evokes both awe and humor. It reminds us that even the most formidable challenges can sometimes turn out to be harmless illusions. This photograph perfectly encapsulates the spirit of adventure and unexpected encounters found within zoos. As we delve into this nostalgic snapshot from the 1970s, it transports us back to a time when innocence and wonder were abundant. It serves as a reminder that nature has its own way of surprising us with delightful moments like these – where reality merges with fantasy. This Memory Lane Print by Mirrorpix beautifully captures an extraordinary interaction between animals and imagination; it invites us to appreciate both their strength and vulnerability while bringing smiles to our faces through its whimsical charm.
