EDITORS COMMENTS
Midsummer Madness at Alfriston Zoo: A Swine Spectacle!". In the scorching summer of '85, temperatures soared to unprecedented heights at Alfriston Zoo in Sussex. Amidst the sweltering heat, a touch of madness unfolded that left visitors chuckling and animals donning unexpected attire. Meet Betsy, an extraordinary rare breed pig residing at the zoo. As the sun beat down relentlessly, poor Betsy fell victim to a severe case of sunburn. But fear not! Her vigilant keeper came to her rescue armed with an unconventional solution - sunscreen! With tender care and a generous slathering of lotion, Betsy's bacon was saved from further sizzling. However, it seems her two mischievous piglets were determined not to be outdone by their mother's newfound fashion statement. In an act of pure hilarity and cuteness overload, they decided to embrace their inner fashionistas by trying on hats and sunglasses instead. Gone were their usual appearances resembling boiled ham; now they sported these accessories with pride! This unforgettable moment captured in 1985 showcases the lighter side of life at Alfriston Zoo - where even pigs can become trendsetters during moments of midsummer madness. Arthur Sidey's photograph immortalizes this funny and unusual scene perfectly – reminding us all that sometimes laughter is truly the best medicine for both humans and animals alike.
