EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black-and-white photograph captures the essence of the Transvaal Game Reserve in South Africa during the early 1940s. Three zebras and a pair of gnu (wildebeest) gather at a watering hole, their reflections shimmering in the still water. The scene is one of tranquility and abundance, as these majestic animals come together to quench their thirst in the arid Southern African landscape. The Transvaal Game Reserve, established in 1894, was one of the first wildlife preserves in South Africa. Its creation marked a significant shift in the narrative of human-wildlife relations, as the reserve aimed to protect the remaining populations of indigenous fauna from hunting and habitat loss. At the time, the reserve covered over 12,000 square kilometers and was home to a diverse array of species, including elephant, rhinoceros, lion, leopard, and buffalo. This photograph, taken in 1941, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the rich biodiversity that once thrived in this part of South Africa. The image also serves as a reminder of the importance of conservation efforts, which continue to be crucial in protecting the unique wildlife of Southern Africa and ensuring their survival for future generations to enjoy.
