Dr. Wilson, Cherry-Garrard and Ford with a sea leopard on sledge
A photograph of a dead sea leopard lying on a wooden sledges. Dr. Edward Wilson, on the left, is behind the sledge leaning over the head of the animal with Apsley Cherry-Garrard and Petty Officer First Class Robert Forde looking on. The background is black as the photograph was taken with a flashlight.
Captain Scott records this event in his journal, although he dates it to 29 May rather than the 28th May from the album. 'We had to secure it as a specimen, but it was sad to have to kill... After lunch a sledge was taken out to secure the prize, which had been photographed by flashlight. Ponting has been making great advances in flashlight work...'
