EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled ""Whadaya mean, OUT. Any monkey would tell you it was a no ball" we are transported back to the summer of 1981 at Twycross Zoo in Tamworth. The chimps, known for their playful nature, have taken up an unexpected pastime - cricket! The image captures the sheer joy and enthusiasm radiating from these furry athletes as they engage in a knockout game of cricket. With makeshift bats and balls, they seem fully immersed in the sport, displaying remarkable coordination and teamwork. Their expressions speak volumes as one chimp passionately argues with another over a disputed call by mimicking human gestures. It's hard not to chuckle at their animated discussion about whether or not it was indeed a "no ball". Their antics remind us that even our closest animal relatives can find delight in imitating our favorite pastimes. This snapshot from the 1980s is a delightful reminder of simpler times when innocence and curiosity knew no bounds. It serves as a testament to the universal appeal of sports and how it transcends species boundaries. Preserved by Birmingham Post and Mail's Memory Lane Prints collection, this photograph allows us to relive this whimsical moment frozen in time. As we gaze upon these mischievous chimps engrossed in their impromptu cricket match, we cannot help but be reminded of the boundless wonders that exist within our natural world.
