EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken in September 1925, we are transported back in time to witness an extraordinary sight at the London Zoo. On the roof of their den, a lion and tiger cub sit side by side, showcasing an unlikely bond between two fierce carnivores. The image beautifully captures the innocence and curiosity of these young cubs as they explore their surroundings together. Their full-length figures reveal their adorable yet powerful presence, highlighting the majesty that lies within them even at such a tender age. As relatives from different branches of the felidae family tree, these cousins share striking similarities while also displaying subtle differences in their features. The lion cub exudes confidence with its regal posture, while the tiger cub emanates a sense of playfulness with its relaxed sitting position. This historical photograph not only showcases the undeniable cuteness of these big cat youngsters but also serves as a reminder of our shared responsibility to protect and preserve these magnificent creatures for generations to come. It is through images like this that we can appreciate both their beauty and vulnerability. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts, we have access to this remarkable piece of history captured by Frederick William Bond over nine decades ago. Let us cherish this moment frozen in time as it reminds us of nature's wonders and our role in safeguarding them.
