Metal Print : "Ranee", Dudley Zoos six-year-old elephant
Metal Prints from Memory Lane
"Ranee", Dudley Zoos six-year-old elephant
" Ranee", Dudley Zoos six-year-old elephant, is just broken in to her new type of expanding barness. The barness allows for any variation in size of her stomach and back, apart from carrying six people on top. It took some time for the keepers to get her used to the idea and pictures show them with " Ranee" introducing her to new contraption. The keeper, who has just fallen into a sitting position on ground, is head keeper Harry Hatch; he overbalanced when adjusting the straps. October 1951 P011836

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from October 1951, we catch a glimpse of the incredible bond between "Ranee". Dudley Zoo's six-year-old elephant, and her dedicated keepers. The image showcases an exciting moment as Ranee is introduced to her new type of expanding barness. This innovative contraption allows for any variation in size of her stomach and back, while also accommodating up to six people on top. The picture tells a story of patience and perseverance as the keepers work tirelessly to familiarize Ranee with the unfamiliar apparatus. We see head keeper Harry Hatch adjusting the straps, fully engrossed in his task. However, a comical twist occurs when he accidentally overbalances and falls into a sitting position on the ground. Despite this unexpected mishap, it only adds to the charm and authenticity captured within this snapshot. This photograph not only highlights the strong relationship between humans and animals but also offers us a glimpse into transportation methods used during that era. It serves as a reminder of how zoos have evolved over time in their efforts to ensure both comfort and safety for their beloved animal residents. Preserved by Mirrorpix under Memory Lane Prints, this timeless image transports us back to an era where dedication and innovation were key elements in caring for magnificent creatures like Ranee at Dudley Zoo.
