EDITORS COMMENTS
An enchanting sight unfolds as an albino chevrotain delicately dines from a dish at the London Zoo, captured in this timeless photograph taken in December 1926. The image, skillfully composed by Frederick William Bond, showcases the rare beauty of this elusive creature. The chevrotain, also known as a mouse deer, belongs to the family Tragulidae and is native to Southeast Asia. Its petite size and graceful features make it resemble a miniature deer. However, what sets this particular specimen apart is its stunning albinism – its pure white coat contrasting against the dark backdrop. Intriguingly captured mid-meal, we witness the chevrotain's delicate nibbles on its carefully arranged feast. Its tiny hooves barely make a sound as they touch the dish's surface while it savors each morsel with utmost gentleness. This photograph not only offers us a glimpse into nature's wonders but also serves as a testament to the importance of zoological institutions like London Zoo in preserving and studying these remarkable creatures. Through such images, we are reminded of our responsibility to protect wildlife and their habitats for generations to come. As we gaze upon this scene frozen in time over nine decades ago, let us appreciate both the artistry behind capturing such moments and the inherent value of all living beings that share our planet.
