EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up, ladies and gentlemen, and feast your eyes on the magnificent collection of Game Animals of the Empire at the Natural History Museum in London, 1932. In this photograph, a guide lecturer proudly stands before an enthralled audience, pointing towards a majestic Bengal tiger, one of the many big cats on display from the Asian continent. The exhibition, a testament to the rich biodiversity of the British Empire, showcased a vast array of animals from the Carnivora order, including members of the Felidae family such as this striking feline. The guide's expert knowledge and enthusiasm for the animals is evident in his animated gestures and the curious expressions of his audience. The daytime setting of the museum, filled with natural light, adds to the vibrant atmosphere of discovery and learning. The exhibit, a significant archival record of the 1930s, offers a glimpse into the fascination and wonder that the natural world held during the 20th century. The Feliformia and Feloidea orders, which include the Felidae family, are part of the larger Eutheria group, and this exhibition provided Europeans with a unique opportunity to learn about these fascinating creatures from far-off lands. The guide's passionate delivery of information about the animals' habitats, behaviors, and adaptations would have left a lasting impression on visitors, fueling their curiosity and igniting a lifelong love for the natural world. This photograph, a precious piece of history from the Edwards Archive on Mary Evans Prints Online, serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving our natural heritage and sharing it with future generations.
