Animals: Rhinoceros. Romance, even for a rhinoceros, is a delicate affair
Animals: Rhinoceros. Romance, even for a rhinoceros, is a delicate affair. Not to be rushed into recklessly, without the proper formalities. Yesterday, for White Rhinoceros Mashobeni (a lady) and White Rhinoceros Ben (a gentleman) there was that all important first meeting. The rendezvous: adjoining paddocks at London Zoo. October 1964 P007372

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to October 1964 at London Zoo, where two majestic White Rhinoceroses, Mashobeni and Ben, embark on a delicate journey of romance. Even for these magnificent creatures, love is not to be rushed into recklessly; it requires the proper formalities. As we gaze upon this image frozen in time, we witness the all-important first meeting between Mashobeni (a lady) and Ben (a gentleman). The anticipation hangs in the air as they stand in adjoining paddocks. Their eyes lock with curiosity and intrigue, their massive bodies exuding an aura of grace. It's fascinating to observe that even animals like rhinoceroses understand the importance of building relationships slowly. They teach us that true connections require patience and respect. The black-and-white tones add a timeless charm to this photograph from Memory Lane Prints. It captures not just a moment but also an era - the swinging 60s when friendships were formed across species boundaries. These gentle giants remind us that bonds can transcend differences if given a chance. Let this enchanting snapshot serve as a reminder that love knows no bounds - whether it's between humans or animals. And let us cherish these heartwarming moments when nature shows us its tender side.
