EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Memory Lane Prints takes us back to the 1980s, capturing a beautiful moment of motherhood in the animal kingdom. The image showcases Kabinda, a four-month-old gorilla, nestled close to her loving mother Mouila at Howletts Zoo near Canterbury Kent. Howletts Zoo boasts the largest collection of gorillas worldwide, making it a sanctuary for these magnificent creatures. In April 1983, their population stood at an impressive 24 individuals, with thirteen of them being born right within the zoo's confines. This particular snapshot freezes time and allows us to witness the tender bond between mother and daughter. The photograph exudes warmth as we see Kabinda suckling on her mother's breast—a natural act that symbolizes nourishment and protection. It is a testament to the innate instincts shared by all mothers across species. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this image also raises important questions about captivity and conservation efforts. While zoos provide shelter and care for animals like these gorillas, they also remind us of our responsibility towards preserving their natural habitats in the wild. In summary, this poignant print captures a precious moment within one of nature's most remarkable families—the gorillas at Howletts Zoo—reminding us of both our fascination with these incredible creatures and our duty to protect them for generations to come.
