EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, we witness the majestic Male Indian Rhinoceros Felix as he gracefully emerges from his pool at London Zoo in 1928. The image, captured by Frederick William Bond, showcases the sheer power and beauty of this endangered species. Felix stands tall with his full-length body on display, showcasing the distinctive features that make him an iconic representative of Indian rhinoceroses. His thick skin, adorned with rugged folds and intricate patterns, tells a story of resilience and survival. As he leaves the refreshing waters behind, Felix's massive hooves leave imprints on the ground beneath him. These hoofed mammals have roamed our planet for centuries but are now classified as vulnerable due to habitat loss and poaching. The historical significance of this photograph lies not only in its portrayal of Felix but also in its preservation through time. It serves as a testament to the efforts made by institutions like London Zoo and organizations such as the Zoological Society of London to protect these magnificent creatures. Through Bond's lens, we are transported back to a moment frozen in time – a glimpse into an era when wildlife conservation was beginning to take shape. This evocative image reminds us of our responsibility to safeguard these incredible animals for future generations.
