EDITORS COMMENTS
Hands of Kindness: Lucy the baby Lemur finds solace in the gentle touch of her keeper, Chris Anscombe. With wide-eyed innocence and vulnerability, Lucy's story is one of resilience and compassion. Born into a world where her own mother rejected her, this tiny lemur found refuge at Chessington Zoo in Surrey under Chris' caring wing. Despite facing early hardships, Lucy is now thriving in her new home. However, there is one small challenge she faces - an endearing habit that causes discomfort. The adorable lemur constantly sucks her thumb, leading to soreness. Ever so thoughtful and considerate, Chris has come up with a clever solution to protect little Lucy's delicate digit. Enter 'Little Doll Lucy, ' as she affectionately became known at the zoo. In April 1987, this heartwarming photograph captured the moment when Chris fitted a dolls glove onto Lucy's tiny hand to shield it from further harm. The image epitomizes not only the bond between human and animal but also showcases the lengths we go to ensure their well-being. Lucy serves as a reminder that even amidst adversity, kindness prevails. Her journey symbolizes hope and resilience for all creatures big and small.
