EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, taken in 1931 by Frederick William Bond, we are transported to the Mappin Terraces at London Zoo. The image showcases a majestic Bighorn Sheep ram standing proudly atop a rock, gazing out over his enclosure with an air of tranquility. The rugged beauty of the mountainous landscape is mirrored in the ram's impressive set of horns, which curl gracefully from either side of his head. His strong physique and commanding presence exude power and resilience. As we observe this magnificent creature from a side view, it becomes evident that he embodies the spirit of North America's wilderness. With every muscle defined beneath his thick coat, he stands as a symbol of strength and adaptability. The rocky terrain upon which he perches serves as both his vantage point and sanctuary within the bustling cityscape surrounding him. It is here that he finds solace amidst the concrete jungle, reminding us all to appreciate nature's wonders even in unexpected places. This historical photograph captures not only the essence of this remarkable bighorn sheep but also offers us a glimpse into London Zoo's rich heritage. It serves as a testament to our fascination with wildlife throughout time - an enduring connection between humans and animals that transcends borders and generations. Through Bond's lens, we are reminded once again of our shared responsibility to protect these incredible creatures for future generations to admire and cherish.
