A Year's Worth of Food for the Animals of London Zoo, 1913: An Illustrative Mountain of Resources This illustration from 1913 offers a glimpse into the colossal effort required to sustain the diverse and vibrant community of animals at London Zoo. The Zoological Society's Gardens, a beloved institution and a pioneer in animal conservation, demanded an impressive array of resources to ensure the wellbeing of its inhabitants. The illustration showcases the staggering sum total of food needed for an entire year. The mountainous pile includes 185 loads of hay, a staggering 124,000 bananas, 158 tons of horse meat, and 62 guinea pigs. The import of such vast quantities of food was a monumental task, reflecting the commitment and dedication of the Zoological Society to provide the best possible care for its animal charges. Hay, a staple for many herbivores, forms the base of the mountain. Above it, the golden hue of 124,000 bananas, a favorite treat for primates and other animals, adds a splash of color. The towering pile of horse meat, a significant source of protein for many carnivores, looms large. And at the very top, a handful of live guinea pigs, an essential part of the diet for some reptiles and birds. This historical illustration serves as a testament to the immense logistical challenges faced by zoos in the early 20th century, and the unwavering dedication of the Zoological Society to provide the highest standard of care for its animals. The image stands as a fascinating reminder of the rich history of London Zoo and the vital role it continues to play in animal conservation and education.
