EDITORS COMMENTS
Frederick Courteney Selous (1851-1917): A Victorian Era Big Game Hunter and Naturalist This historic photograph captures the renowned British explorer, hunter, and naturalist, Frederick Courteney Selous, in the prime of his career. Born in 1851, Selous spent much of his life in Africa, but also hunted in North America and Asia Minor. He is best known for his extensive knowledge of African wildlife and his role in the preservation of game animals during the Victorian and 19th centuries. In this image, Selous is depicted in his element, holding a rifle and standing amidst a diverse array of African game and avian species. The sauropsida, a group that includes both reptiles and birds, is well represented in this scene. Selous's keen interest in natural history is evident in the meticulous arrangement of the animals around him, which includes a variety of antelope, zebra, and birds. As a hunter, Selous was renowned for his skill and sportsmanship. He was a prolific writer and produced numerous articles and books on his African adventures, including "The Heart of Africa" and "This Was Palissand." Selous's work helped to popularize big game hunting in Europe and North America, and his name became synonymous with the exotic allure of African wildlife. Despite his reputation as a hunter, Selous was also a conservationist and advocate for the protection of endangered species. He believed that sustainable hunting practices were essential for the preservation of game populations and the maintenance of the natural balance of African ecosystems. This photograph captures the essence of a bygone era, when the exploration and documentation of the natural world were driven by a sense of adventure and discovery. Frederick Courteney Selous remains an enduring symbol of the Victorian era's fascination with the exotic and the natural world.
