Sue shooing away a swan. On back of photo dated 19/5/1954 is typewritten note:
"Sue has just given birth to a calf named Sammy. And Sammy is something of a 'miracle baby'. His father killed three mates before accepting Sue. But Sue is of tougher stock. And she has survived - even though she has been badly mauled in the process. And now she's determined that Sammy will survive too. So she chases away even the swan who came to take a look at the sea lions' lake at Chester Zoo. Then she swims back to Sammy to give him a motherly nuzzle and assure him that all is well."
