The image features the esteemed proprietors of the zoo, Hugh Palmer and George, who happen to be identical twin brothers. Standing proudly beside them is Sam, a magnificent Sulphur Crested Cockatoo, one of their beloved animal residents. The official name of this cherished establishment was Cardiff Zoo (Barry), but it held a special place in the hearts of locals who affectionately referred to it as Barry Zoo. This snapshot captures not only the deep bond between these siblings but also their unwavering dedication to providing entertainment and joy through their extraordinary collection of creatures. As we gaze at this portrait frozen in time, we can almost hear Sam's melodic squawks echoing through the air while visitors marvel at his vibrant plumage.
