Film footage on board the Medic

[Timothy Trower]

What do you do when a ship sails up from Australia loaded with strange animals? You call it the Noah's Ark ship and send a British Pathe film crew to take photos of the cargo. Although there is not much to see of the Medic itself (1899), this footage shot in 1921 gives a view of all sorts of critters.
