We were in a confined space and couldn’t get him out, it was terrifying! Amorous donkeys – there’s no stopping them. He really wanted to make some more baby donkeys. “He came charging in, making a horrific sound and jumped on the female donkey. “They’ve been portrayed as docile and cute, but in reality they were quite wild.” While shooting a jenny and her foal, Gethings spotted a male donkey watching nearby and suggested they let him in. Unexpectedly, it was the donkeys that caused most issues. But I didn’t want to rely on that – the portraits had to stand up in their own right.” Baby Animal Match CUTE BABY ANIMALS: can you reunite them with their parentsBOXED GIFT perfect for animal lovers of all agesINCLUDES BOOKLET with fun. “Getting to hold a baby hedgehog is reason enough to be there. And barn owls in particular are so beautiful that to get the opportunity to photograph them was dreamy.” The proximity to the animals was one of his main motivations for the project, he says. That was one of his favourite shoots, Gethings says. Little spike, big spike (top) and mooving on up … Photographs: Gerrard Gethings It’s an evolutionary explanation for why we find small, wet-eyed pups so appealing, and may be what drives us (and other animals) to care for the orphaned young of other species. More recent research supports Lorenz’s belief that the appeal transfers across the species divide – that the same psychological mechanism is involved in spotting and appreciating the cuteness of babies, puppies and kittens alike. For species whose young are born needy and reliant on their parents, attracting kind and caring attention might make all the difference for survival. These included a large cranium and eyes small nose and mouth plump body and chubby, squeezable cheeks. In the 1940s, the Austrian zoologist Konrad Lorenz – who became world famous for demonstrating that baby goslings would bond to and follow the first moving thing they saw, whether that be mother goose or Lorenz himself – outlined what he called the “Kindchenschema” (baby schema): a number of features common among babies of different species that elicit a positive response from humans. The quality of “universal cuteness” that Gethings alludes to is something that has been carefully studied. Gethings captures his babies at the sweetest spots of all: a creamy lamb standing four-square, its spindly legs braced shakily against the ground a donkey foal whose ears are entirely out of proportion to its dainty velveteen muzzle a duckling dressed in primrose yellow fuzz, caught mid-quack. It’s really fascinating.”įrom a piglet to a hairy hog, and a dinky donkey to a wild jenny. There’s a sweet spot after a few days when they can stand up, open their eyes, show that first bit of life.

Too young, and they can’t support themselves. “They’ve got to be really young, but not too young. It took a little while to zoom in on exactly what makes baby animals so engaging, he tells me.

With people there’s more going on, a subtext.” They don’t understand language, but they understand body language and the way you are with them. “With animals, I feel in control, more fully present. Previous projects have included human subjects – such as 2018’s Do You Look Like Your Dog?, in which an Afghan hound needs to be matched to his windswept, long-haired owner – but increasingly Gethings finds himself gravitating towards animal-only work.
