Shot on 8mm film in 1974, this vintage home movie captures a serene wildlife scene at what appears to be a zoo or safari park in Irvine, California. A large ostrich walks calmly through a dry, grassy enclosure, passing a group of zebras and Thompson's gazelles gathered near a water hole. The animals move naturally under an overcast sky, with the film's characteristic grain and soft color palette enhancing its nostalgic, archival quality. This authentic slice of 1970s home movie footage offers a rare glimpse of African wildlife in a curated setting, perfect for documentaries, historical content, or nostalgic storytelling.
