Farewell ride on Jumbo the elephant 1882 - stock illustration
Vintage engraving of children taking a ride on the back of Jumbo the elephant. Jumbo was the first international animal superstar, and the first African elephant to reach modern Europe alive. He was born in East Africa, and captured there by Arabian hunters in early 1862. He was sold first to an Italian animal dealer, then to a menagerie in Germany, and then to the Jardin des Plantes in Paris. Officials of the Jardin traded him to the London Zoological Gardens for a rhinoceros. Jumbo lived in the London Zoo for about 16 years. The London Illustrated News, 1882
