EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, sourced from the extensive archives of Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back in time to Tring Park, the historic estate that once housed The Walter Rothschild Zoological Museum. In this image, we find a fascinating grouping of two distinct and intriguing flightless birds: an Emu from Australia and a Rhea from South America. Lord Lionel Walter Rothschild, a renowned naturalist and collector, was the driving force behind this remarkable menagerie. Established in 1892, The Walter Rothschild Zoological Museum at Tring Park became a haven for a vast variety of exotic and rare animals, including these two ratite birds. Ratites are a group of large, flightless birds that belong to the superorder Casuariiformes, and include Emus (Dromaiidae, Dromaius, Dromaius novaehollandiae) and Rheas (Rheidae, Rhea). The Emu, native to Australia, is the second-largest bird in the world, and can grow up to 1.5 meters tall. The Rhea, native to South America, stands at around 1 meter tall and is the largest bird in South America. Both birds are sauropsids, a clade of reptile-like birds, and are an essential part of the rich history of avian evolution. This photograph, taken outside The Walter Rothschild Zoological Museum at Tring Park, showcases the unique and diverse collection that once graced the estate. It is a testament to the passion and dedication of Lord Lionel Walter Rothschild, who sought to preserve and showcase the natural world's wonders for future generations.
