The image transports us back to 1854 when this momentous event took place, captured for eternity in The Illustrated London News. The enchanting scene unfolds with a sense of anticipation and wonder. A group of Arctic foxes, their pristine white fur contrasting against the dark background, are seen exploring their new surroundings. Their curious eyes dart around, taking in every detail of their unfamiliar habitat. Meanwhile, perched on branches above them are a variety of vibrant birds, adding splashes of color to the composition. We can almost feel the excitement radiating from both the animals and those witnessing this extraordinary sight at London Zoo.
