EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from the archives of Mary Evans Picture Library, we are transported back in time to the Chester Zoo in Cheshire, England, during the 1960s or 1970s. The image showcases a dedicated keeper in action, as he playfully throws a bucket of water over the backs of a group of elephants. The animals, with their large, expressive ears and wrinkled skin, seem to relish the refreshing shower, much like we do when we take a bath to start our day. The historical setting of this photograph adds an intriguing layer to the scene. Chester Zoo, which opened its doors in 1931, was one of the first modern zoos in the United Kingdom. Its founders, George and Belle Mottershead, were pioneers in the field of animal welfare and conservation. They believed that animals should be housed in naturalistic environments, and their vision revolutionized the way zoos were run. This photograph offers a glimpse into the daily life of the elephants at Chester Zoo during a time when keeping animals in captivity was still a relatively new concept. It is a poignant reminder of the important role zoos play in educating the public about wildlife and conservation efforts. The image also highlights the bond between the keepers and the animals, demonstrating the care and dedication that goes into ensuring their well-being. As we admire this charming photograph, we are reminded of the rich history of Chester Zoo and the significant role it has played in the world of animal welfare and conservation. The elephants' joyful splash in the water is a testament to the enduring connection between humans and these magnificent creatures.
