EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from April 1944, we are introduced to Minnie, the Wallaby, a resident of the zoo owned by Sir Garron Tyrwhit Drake of Maidstone. The image showcases a heartwarming family trio consisting of Minnie, her mate, and their adorable baby wallaby. As we observe the scene closely, it becomes evident that Minnie's little one is still quite dependent on its mother. Although he has started feeding himself on potato peelings like a true Aussie trooper, he seems rather content staying snugly tucked away in his mother's pouch. Perhaps this little joey is just taking his time to explore the world outside at his own pace. Minnie herself appears to find something amusing as she gazes into the distance. Her facial expression radiates joy and laughter, reminding us that even amidst the turmoil of World War II which was raging during those times, moments of happiness could still be found in unexpected places. This photograph not only captures an endearing moment within an Australian zoo but also serves as a poignant reminder of resilience and hope during challenging times. It transports us back to an era where animals provided solace and comfort for people seeking respite from the chaos around them. Let this snapshot take you on a journey through history and evoke feelings of warmth as you witness Minnie's loving care for her offspring amidst uncertain times.
