EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph from the Universal Images Group (UIG) takes us back to a significant moment in history - the transportation of whales using mobile platforms in Durban, South Africa. The image captures the essence of a bygone era, specifically the 1950s, as men work together to transport these majestic sea mammals. The scene is set against the backdrop of Durban's stunning coastline, showcasing both its natural beauty and its importance as a hub for marine life. The photo highlights the ingenuity and resourcefulness of those involved in this unique operation. It also offers a glimpse into an industry that was prevalent during that time period. Intriguingly, only men are seen participating in this endeavor, providing insight into gender roles and societal norms at that time. Additionally, it is worth noting that black people are depicted among those involved in this historical event, shedding light on racial dynamics within South Africa during this era. As we observe this remarkable snapshot frozen in time, we can't help but marvel at how far our understanding and treatment of animals has evolved since then. This historical image serves as a reminder of our responsibility to protect and preserve these incredible creatures for future generations
