In this heartwarming print from September 1981, we see Ben the Hippo eagerly preparing to indulge in his birthday cake. The beloved resident of Chessington Zoo is celebrating his 14th year of life, and the excitement is palpable. As zoo chief-um-chef Peter Short and dedicated keeper Phil Lowe stand by, they proudly present Ben with a special cake crafted with care. Made from a delightful combination of bran, fruit, and egg white, this treat promises to be a delicious delight for the jubilant hippopotamus. Ben's infectious joy radiates through the image as he gazes at his magnificent birthday surprise. His eyes sparkle with anticipation while his massive mouth opens wide in readiness for that first delectable bite. It's evident that every detail has been considered to ensure Ben's celebration is nothing short of extraordinary. This snapshot captures not only a momentous occasion but also showcases the incredible bond between animals and their caretakers. The dedication displayed by Peter Short and Phil Lowe exemplifies their commitment to providing exceptional care for these majestic creatures. Preserved through time thanks to Arthu's lens, this photograph serves as a nostalgic reminder of an era gone by – the 1980s – when simple joys like birthdays brought immense happiness both to humans and animals alike.
