Wild boar, Mozambique, 1918

1918

“Wild boar.” Portrait of a shot boar posed amongst grass. This is an example of the big game hunting Capt. Irvine participated in during the campaign in Portuguese East Africa. ❧ This image is from an album chronicling the war time experiences of Archibald Clive Irvine (1893-1974) in Portuguese East Africa with the Royal Army Medical Corps. During the war he met with missionaries in East Africa which in turn lead to him joining the mission at Tumutumu and then establishing the mission at Chogoria, both in Kenya.
