EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Nathan Edwards from the Australian Associated Press (AAP), we are drawn into the world of two majestic lions peering out of their sleeping quarters at the family-owned Billabong Zoo in Port Macquarie, NSW. The image tells a poignant story as it was taken during a time when the zoo had to close its doors due to the devastating impact of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19). The intensity in the eyes of these magnificent creatures reflects both curiosity and longing for human interaction. As they gaze out towards an empty space that once buzzed with visitors, we can't help but feel a sense of empathy for these animals who have been deprived of their usual daily routine. This photograph not only captures the beauty and power of these lion mates but also serves as a reminder of how deeply COVID-19 has affected our lives, even reaching into places where we least expect it. It highlights the profound impact on businesses like zoos that rely on public support and engagement. As we admire this image, let us reflect on our interconnectedness with nature and wildlife. May it inspire us to appreciate and protect all living beings around us, especially those vulnerable species native to Australia such as koalas, kangaroos, tigers, and other adorable baby animals like joeys. Nathan Edwards' lens has given us a glimpse into a moment frozen in time – one that evokes emotions ranging from admiration to concern for our animal friends amidst challenging circumstances.
