EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken at the London Zoo in 1923, we see Reginald Innes Pocock F. R. S. , the esteemed Superintendent of the zoo, holding a kinkajou. The image showcases both the fascinating world of wildlife and the bond between man and animal. The kinkajou, also known as a Honey-Bear, is a carnivorous mammal native to regions ranging from eastern Mexico to central Brazil. With its large eyes and slender body, it exudes an air of mystery and charm. Pocock's gentle hold on this creature highlights his deep understanding and appreciation for these unique beings. As Superintendent of London Zoo from 1904 to 1923, Pocock played a crucial role in advancing zoological knowledge during that era. His dedication to studying animals like the kinkajou contributed greatly to our understanding of their behavior and habitat requirements. This photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to Pocock's passion for zoology. It reminds us of the importance of preserving nature's wonders for future generations. Through Frederick William Bond's lens, we are transported back to the 1920s when photography was still evolving as an art form. This timeless image invites us into an enchanting world where man connects with nature in profound ways – reminding us that even amidst urban landscapes, there will always be room for harmony between humans and animals.
