EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph illustration, titled "Stellers Sea Cow, Hydrodamalis gigas," showcases the enigmatic marine mammal that once inhabited the cold waters of the North Pacific Ocean. The Stellers Sea Cow, also known as the Steller's Sea Cow or the Sea Rhinoceros, was a large, herbivorous marine creature that grew up to 10 meters in length and weighed up to 10 tons. This illustration, created by F. John for the publication "Tiere der Urwelt" or "Animals of the Prehistoric World," published in Hamburg, Germany, in 1910, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the Stellers Sea Cow in its natural habitat. Tragically, this magnificent creature was hunted to extinction in the late 18th century due to human activities. European explorers and settlers, drawn to the rich resources of the North Pacific, hunted the Stellers Sea Cow for its meat, oil, and hide. The rapid decline in population led to its extinction within a few short decades. The Stellers Sea Cow was a unique and fascinating creature, with a bulbous body, short limbs, and a long, curved snout. Its large size and lack of fear of humans made it an easy target for hunters. This illustration serves as a poignant reminder of the consequences of human actions and the importance of preserving the natural world. The intricate details and vibrant colors of this chromolithograph illustration highlight the beauty and majesty of the Stellers Sea Cow, a creature that once roamed the North Pacific Ocean but is now only found in the pages of history books and in the imaginations of those who marvel at the wonders of the natural world.
