EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a remarkable moment at the London Zoo in July 1925. In the frame stands Oojah, a young female African Pygmy Elephant, raising her trunk with an air of curiosity and grace. The lens of Frederick William Bond beautifully freezes this enchanting encounter between human visitors and one of nature's most majestic creatures. Oojah's presence is both awe-inspiring and endearing as she showcases the innocence and wonderment of youth. Her petite size compared to other elephants adds to her charm, emphasizing her status as a pygmy elephant. This rare species, known as Loxodonta cyclotis or African Pygmy Forest Elephant, holds immense significance in wildlife conservation efforts. The image not only highlights Oojah's adorable features but also serves as a reminder of the importance of zoological institutions like the Zoological Society of London in preserving endangered species for future generations. It invites us to appreciate the intricate beauty found within our natural world while encouraging us to protect these magnificent animals from extinction. Bond's skillful photography transports us back in time, allowing us to witness this magical moment firsthand. As we gaze upon Oojah playfully raising her trunk, we are reminded that even amidst bustling city life, there exists a sanctuary where humans can connect with nature on a profound level.
