Dumbo is a lazy little blighter. Just think of it. Even in the hottest weather

Dumbo is a lazy little blighter. Just think of it. Even in the hottest weather, he can t be bothered to suck the water up through his trunk. Apparently that is too long and drawn out a business for Dumbo, baby elephant at the London zoo. So Bill Crompton, his keeper, has to use a watering can. July 1951 P011839

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this delightful vintage photo, we catch a glimpse of Dumbo, the mischievous baby elephant at the London zoo. Known for his laziness and quirky habits, Dumbo refuses to go through the trouble of sucking water up through his trunk even in scorching hot weather. Instead, we see Bill Crompton, his dedicated keeper, coming to the rescue with a watering can. The scene is both humorous and endearing as it captures Dumbo's laid-back nature and unwillingness to exert himself. It seems that even basic tasks like drinking are too much of an effort for our adorable little blighter! Taken in July 1951 by Mirrorpix photographers, this snapshot transports us back to a simpler time when zoos were filled with wonder and amusement. The image exudes charm with its black-and-white composition and nostalgic 1950s vibes. This photograph serves as a reminder of how animals have always been a source of joy and entertainment for humans throughout history. Whether it's witnessing their amusing antics or marveling at their unique characteristics, our connection with these creatures continues to bring smiles to our faces. So let us cherish this timeless moment frozen in print – where cuteness meets laziness – forever reminding us that sometimes even the simplest tasks can be made more enjoyable by adding a touch of humor into our lives.
