EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from 1923, we witness a heartwarming encounter between two African sociable vultures and a group of curious children at the zoo. Recently acquired for the Zoo's collection, these magnificent birds are known to be highly sociable creatures, unlike their intimidating reputation suggests. Standing next to the condor, they proudly display their impressive size as they interact with the young visitors. It is fascinating to observe how easily tamed they are, allowing themselves to be stroked by gentle hands without any signs of aggression. Their formidable claws remain sheathed as if in complete harmony with their newfound friends. The image captures a moment of pure connection and trust between humans and animals. The children eagerly feed these majestic vultures right inside their cage – an extraordinary experience that surely left an indelible mark on both parties involved. This photograph not only serves as a reminder of our ability to form unexpected bonds across species but also reflects the timeless charm of early twentieth-century photography. Preserved in monochrome tones, it transports us back in time when such encounters were cherished moments amidst Europe's turbulent interwar period. As we admire this rare glimpse into history through Central News' lens, let us appreciate the power of friendship that transcends boundaries – even those imposed by nature itself.
