EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in February 1910, showcases a majestic African elephant named George, proudly displayed in Central Hall of the Natural History Museum in London. The elephant, obtained only three years prior from taxidermists Rowland Ward Ltd, was a significant addition to the museum's extensive collection of mammals. The African elephant (Loxodonta africana), a large mammal in the family Elephantidae and the largest living terrestrial animal, was an intriguing and awe-inspiring sight for visitors to the museum during the Edwardian era. George, with his impressive tusks and regal demeanor, was a testament to the natural world and the wonders it held. The photograph, taken in the late 19th to early 20th century, is a snapshot of a bygone era. The Natural History Museum, founded in 1848, was in its prime, and the acquisition of George added to its reputation as a leading institution for the study and preservation of natural history. The African elephant, an eutherian mammal, is the largest living representative of the order Proboscidea, which includes other elephants and their close relatives, the aardvark and the hyrax. George's presence in Central Hall served as a reminder of the importance of conservation efforts and the need to protect these magnificent creatures in their natural habitats. This photograph is a historical artifact, a window into the past, and a reminder of the rich natural history that continues to inspire and captivate us today.
