EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the world of European entertainment. The image showcases performing bears, an artwork from the renowned French popular science weekly La Science Illustree. In this historical illustration, we witness the cultural phenomenon of working animals in captivity. Trained bears are seen showcasing their remarkable skills in front of a mesmerized audience at a circus show. The bears' performance includes an astonishing trick involving firearms - one bear is firing a pistol with precision. While this artwork provides insight into the zoology and biology of these magnificent mammals, it also raises questions about animal rights and ethics during that era. It serves as a reminder that our understanding and treatment of wildlife have evolved significantly over time. The annual volume containing this piece was created by Louis Figuier, who aimed to educate readers through his popular science magazine. This particular image captures both the fascination people had for exotic fauna as well as their thirst for entertainment. As we reflect on this snapshot from history, let us appreciate how far we have come in terms of our relationship with animals and recognize the importance of preserving their natural habitats rather than exploiting them for human amusement or gain.
