EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a rare glimpse of the elusive Thylacine, also known as the Tasmanian Wolf, at London Zoo in August 1926. Taken by Frederick William Bond, this historical image showcases the last-known living specimen of this extraordinary creature. The Thylacine, with its distinctive features and enigmatic presence, has long fascinated both scientists and animal enthusiasts alike. Sadly, it is believed to have become extinct in 1933. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of a species lost forever. London Zoo played a significant role in preserving and exhibiting these remarkable creatures. Between 1850 and 1931, they showcased a total of twenty Thylacines to educate visitors about their unique characteristics and raise awareness about their conservation. In this particular image, we see the full-length profile view of the Thylacine standing majestically against its enclosure. Its carnivorous nature is evident through its sharp teeth and powerful physique. The monochromatic tones add an air of nostalgia to the scene while emphasizing the intricate details captured by Bond's lens. As we gaze upon this hauntingly beautiful print from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are reminded not only of our responsibility to protect endangered species but also of our collective duty to preserve Earth's rich biodiversity for future generations.
