EDITORS COMMENTS
Kalash, the resilient Indian tiger cub, captured in this heartwarming print from October 1986 at Howletts Zoo, tells a tale of survival against all odds. Born into a litter that was sadly neglected by their mother, Kalash stands as the sole survivor of his siblings. In this image, we witness Kalash indulging in one of life's simplest pleasures - drinking milk. His innocent eyes and delicate paws convey vulnerability and an innate sense of curiosity about the world around him. As he eagerly laps up nourishment from a bottle held by compassionate caretakers, it is impossible not to be captivated by his undeniable cuteness. This snapshot serves as a poignant reminder of nature's fragility and the tireless efforts made by dedicated individuals to protect endangered species like Kalash. It transports us back to the nostalgic era of the 1980s when conservation efforts were gaining momentum worldwide. Photographer Sidey Arthur has masterfully captured both the beauty and vulnerability inherent in wildlife photography through this timeless piece. The juxtaposition between Kalash's wild origins and his reliance on human intervention evokes mixed emotions - admiration for his resilience yet sadness for what could have been. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph, let us reflect on our responsibility towards preserving these majestic creatures' habitats and ensuring future generations can continue to marvel at their existence.
