Content: British Museum Instagram is "washed" to return Easter Island moai statue
Author: Zhang Zijie
Published: Updated:
The official Instagram of the British Museum has recently been "washed" by a large number of netizens, asking the museum to return a moai statue of Easter Island to Chile.
The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) reported on February 19 that the action was initiated by Chilean Internet personality Mike Milfort, who said in the film that his supporters first washed the Wikipedia "Return Moai" slogan, and then "captured" the British Museum's Instagram comment area.
Chilean President Gabriel Boric, in an interview, also agreed with the idea behind the operation.
Although the British Museum closed the comment function for one of the Instagram posts, but the netizens continue to wash the other posts, there are more than 2100 comments. (Instagram / BritishMuseum)
The Moai statue is estimated to have appeared around 1400 – 1650, and there are still many similar statues on Easter Island, but many have been found in museums around the world, including the British Museum's Hoa Hakananai'a and a smaller one called Hava.
The two statues were given to Queen Victoria in 1869 by a British captain, who donated them to the British Museum.

The British Museum has been asked to return the statue to Easter Island. The museum has stressed that it has always had a good and open relationship with its colleagues on Easter Island, and they have visited London many times since 2018.
For this incident, the museum has closed the comment function of one of the posts, saying that it welcomes the debate of all parties, but also needs to strike a balance between security measures.
In addition to the controversy, Greece last year asked the British Museum to return the Elgin Marbles.

The Elgin Marbles, actually the Parthenon Marbles, have been Greek for over two thousand years and still are in every way except location. They were taken, realistically stolen, by Lord Elgin in the early 1800s and most people believe should be returned but that is actually illegal under British Museum Act 1963 and offers to ‘lend’ them are insulting.

One of the most obvious concerns that many museums have is that they would be emptied of items that were acquired, a weasel word for stolen, during times when the attitudes were different. Different attitudes do not condone theft.

Let’s return the thefts of the past to their rightful owners and put the past attitudes in the rubbish bin of time.

Queen Elizabeth II owned over 30 corgis during her lifetime, contributing to the breed's international recognition.

Queen Elizabeth II had a special relationship with corgis, owning more than 30 throughout her life, with her first corgi, Dookie, being gifted to her in 1933.

Queen Elizabeth II was 96 years old when she passed away.

Queen Elizabeth II passed away on September 8, 2022.

Queen Elizabeth II's last two corgis were named Muick and Sandy.

Queen Elizabeth II received her first corgi, Susan, on her 18th birthday in 1933, marking the beginning of a long-standing bond between the royal family and the breed.

Queen Elizabeth II has cared for more than 30 dogs, specifically corgis, throughout her life, with a notable historical bond between the royal family and the breed.

Queen Elizabeth II's love for corgis is evident in the fact that she owned over 30 corgis throughout her life, with her first corgi being gifted to her in 1933 when she was just 7 years old.

The Pembroke Welsh Corgi is the breed of corgi associated with British royalty, particularly Queen Elizabeth II.

Queen Elizabeth II's love for corgis contributed to their global popularity, with her breeding and public affection for the breed making them a cultural icon.

"Queen Elizabeth II's love for corgis is well-documented, and she had been breeding them for many years, resulting in 14 generations of the breed."

Queen Elizabeth II has owned corgis for generations, with a history of keeping them as pets that spans nearly a century.

Queen Elizabeth II owned over 30 Corgis and Dorgis during her reign, with her first corgi, Susan, being a gift from her father, and subsequent generations descending from Susan.

Queen Elizabeth II has a historical bond with the Corgi breed, having fallen in love with them as a young girl and receiving her first corgi, Susan, as an 18th birthday present, leading to 14 generations of royal corgis.

Corgis bred for herding livestock long before Queen Elizabeth II made them famous

By Sophie Johnson
Posted

While corgis are synonymous with the late Queen Elizabeth II, it might be a surprise to know the tiny breed is still used as a working dog in Australia.

The Queen had 30 corgis as pets over her lifetime, giving the breed its international recognition.

But the dog has been used for centuries to herd livestock.

Jean Milnes herds south of Adelaide with her female corgi, Tirion.

"[Corgis] have been herding since the Middle Ages at least, there is documentary evidence of them herding back in about 800AD," she said.

"I just got into it because I thought this would be fun to do to see if she could remember what her ancestors used to do."

Exercising instincts

There are few corgi herders in Australia now, but Ms Milne is hoping the popularity will boom after the death of the Queen, returning the breed to its farming roots.

"I still have the conversation with people who think corgis are wonderful, associate them with being the Queen's dog, and don't realise that they actually have a job to do," Ms Milnes said.

"There is ... going to be an influx of people wanting corgis for the next year or so, and it would be nice if they did something more than just go to the dog park."

Her corgi trains for herding competitions.

"We should be doing things that … dogs enjoy as well," she said.

"They need to be given the opportunity to achieve things.

"I think it is very important in any breed to maintain what they were intended to do."

Big brain, little legs

National Welsh Corgi Council secretary Sadie Podger said the dogs were very intelligent, which was needed when herding animals.

"Years ago … the farmers found that these dogs are actually quite smart and adapt to their conditions that they're in and found that they were the better of all the cattle type dogs that they had," she said.

Ms Podger said corgis were known as herd heelers because they could nip the rear legs of livestock to guide and direct the animal.

"When they herd they can roll from one side … of the cattle to the other side with that, and then sort of directing the cattle to where they want it, because cattle can be quite stubborn."

"They're low to the ground so they can drop their head a little bit, and basically the hoof goes over the top of their head where a taller dog could get hit in the head."

Content: Prince William reassures fan that Queen Elizabeth II’s beloved corgis are ‘fine’

As Prince William surprised mourners waiting outside Westminster Hall to pay their respects to Queen Elizabeth II on Saturday, one had a pressing question on her mind: How are the late Queen’s beloved corgis faring?

“I saw them the other day,” the recently anointed Prince of Wales, 40, said in response.

“They’re being looked after fine. They’re two very friendly corgis. They’ve got a good home, they’re being looked after very well.”

The woman looked rather relieved to hear this, offering her condolences to William before he continued down the line.

It’s widely known that Queen Elizabeth harbored a lifelong adoration for the dog breed.

When she died on Sept. 8 at the age of 96, she left two of them behind: Muick and Sandy, along with a cocker spaniel named Lissy. Another one of her much-loved pups, an elderly dachshund-corgi mix named Candy, reportedly passed away just months before the Queen‘s death.

As Prince William alluded, Muick and Sandy have already safely moved in with Prince Andrew and his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson – with whom he still cohabitates – at their shared residence in Windsor. Meanwhile, Lissy is reportedly staying with her trainer, per E!.

As previously reported, it was back in 1933 when Queen Elizabeth II received her first corgi, Dookie. The pooch was gifted to the then-7-year-old by her father, George VI.

Then, on the Queen’s 18th birthday in 1944, her parents gave her another corgi-pup, this one named Susan.

It’s been reported that, of the more than 30 corgis Queen Elizabeth was said to have owned over her lifetime, many were Susan’s descendants. The lineage sadly ended in 2015, however, when her last living progeny, Willow, died at the age of 15.

The Duke and Duchess of York brought Muick – along with another pooch named Fergus who tragically succumbed to a congenital heart defect very shortly thereafter – into the Queen’s life in March of 2021 to cheer her up in light of her late husband Prince Philip’s declining health. The late Duke of Edinburgh died at the age of 99 that April.

From there, Sandy found her way to Buckingham Palace on the occasion of the Queen’s 95th birthday.

She seemed to have no problem fitting right into the royal lifestyle, easily making her way into the monarch’s heart after the loss of her husband.

Queen Elizabeth II was 96 years old when she passed away.

Annual ‘Tour de Corgi’ event to include new ‘Queen Elizabeth’ costume category to honour the monarch

“We all have a very strong affection for her as a fellow corgi lover," Tour de Corgi founder Tracy Stewart was quoted as saying

As a tribute to the late UK monarch Queen Elizabeth II, who passed away at the age of 96 at her Balmoral estate in Scotland on September 8, after reigning for 70 long years, the Tour de Corgi parade — an annual event that celebrates the dog breed corgi — will include a new element this year that is likely to make fans of the British royal family and corgi lovers happy.

It is no secret that the queen was extremely fond of dogs, especially corgis, from a very early age, and that she had been breeding them until 2018, when she finally realised that she may have to leave some of them behind after her death.

According to Country Living, the queen had four dogs at the time of her death: two Pembroke Welsh Corgis, a Dorgi (Corgi-Dachshund mix), and a Cocker Spaniel named Lissy, who joined the family only this year, in January 2022.

In her lifetime, she reportedly bred 14 generations of corgis, and even famously declared: “My corgis are family.”

According to an Independent report, Queen Elizabeth‘s love for her four-legged friends was well-documented during this year’s platinum jubilee celebrations in the UK, when the sky above Buckingham Palace was lit up with images of the dog breed.

The publication mentioned that the Tour de Corgi parade this year — which has been taking place in Fort Collins, Colorado since 2014 — will include a “Queen Elizabeth and her corgis” costume competition, in “memorium and to honour her”, quoting the event’s organisers who shared this with a local newspaper ‘The Coloradoan‘.

This is a May 12, 1973 file photo of Queen Elizabeth II sitting with her corgis, at Virginia Water to watch competitors, including Prince Philip in the Marathon of the European Driving Championship, part of the Royal Windsor Horse Show.

Tour de Corgi founder Tracy Stewart was quoted as saying, “We all have a very strong affection for her as a fellow corgi lover. I think it is just, you know, our dogs are such a big part of our hearts that it creates a very heartfelt connection.”

The aforementioned event will take place on October 1, 2022, and will conclude with a corgi parade through the town.

According to a Reader’s Digest report, the queen was fond of corgis because of their “energy and untamed spirit”, and the fact that her parents welcomed the family’s first corgi, Dookie, in 1933. Eleven years later, in 1944, the queen’s father gifted her a corgi named Susan for her 18th birthday. The pupper even accompanied her on her honeymoon, and gave birth to a pair of puppies in 1949, which reportedly marked the beginning of the royal line of corgis.

Content: King Charles Spaniel numbers are declining and the breed is on the Kennel Club's 'vulnerable list' - amid Corgi boom following Queen Elizabeth's death

  • Corgis have seen boom in popularity after Platinum Jubilee and death of Queen
  • Number of Pembroke Welsh Corgis registered with Kennel Club hit 30-year peak
  • But popularity of King Charles Spaniels is continuing to decline, hitting a low
  • Lovers of the breed are hoping sharing name with new King will boost the dogs

Interest in Corgis has boomed following the Platinum Jubilee and the death of Queen Elizabeth, according to the Kennel Club.

Numbers of Pembroke Welsh Corgis registered with the organisation have reached a 30-year high, the Times reports.

Conversely, King Charles Spaniels are continuing to see a decline in their popularity, with lovers of the breed reportedly hoping that sharing a moniker with the new monarch may give the dogs a boost (though the new king prefers Jack Russells).

The breed, which is on the Kennel Club's vulnerable list, hit a low in 2020, with just 56 registrations. This increased to 91 in 2021, but numbers so far this year are so low, it is likely to drop beneath 2020.

The number of Corgis registered with the Kennel Club has reached a 30-year high, with interest growing following the death of the Queen (pictured here in 1980 with three of the dogs)

Cavalier King Charles Spaniels (as pictured) are doing well in terms of popularity, although their close relative the King Charles Spaniel (not pictured) is seeing a decline

However, it notes that Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, the original breed from which King Charles diverged in the middle of the century, is doing well, with 3,772 registrations last year.

The original Cavalier King Charles Spaniel dog breed was developed from toy spaniels. Popular as women's pets, they were also beloved of King Charles II, who was said to be so fond of his spaniels, he could not be parted from them.

Although Corgis were on the Kennel Club's vulnerable list in 2014, they are now one ofthe UK's most popular breeds, and the Queen is credited with boosting their popularity (pictured: Queen Elizabeth with one of her beloved corgis, Candy)

The Pembroke Welsh Corgi has become known as a symbol of British royalty thanks to its long-standing association with the Queen

Lovers of the ailing King Charles Spaniel may look to the influence the Queen had in turning around the fortune of corgis in recent decades.

The breed was listed as 'vulnerable' in 2014, and the Kennel Club credits Her Majesty's love of the dogs as the major factor in making them one of the UK's most popular breeds today.

Corgis, which have four short legs, a long snout and two huge pointed ears, are famous for being a symbol of British royalty.

HISTORY OF THE CORGI BREED

The word 'Corgi' is Welsh for 'Dwarf Dog', and there are two types; the Pembroke, which is the Queen's breed, and the Cardigan Corgi, a descendent Teckel family of dogs, which also produced the Dachshund

Pembroke Welsh Corgis originated in Pembrokeshire, Wales from the Spitz family of dogs which are characterised by long, thick fur and pointed ears and muzzle

Corgis are a cattle herding breed that can be traced back as far as 1107 AD, thought to have been brought to Wales by  Flemish weavers

They are the type of herding dog referred to as 'heelers', meaning that they would nip at the heels of cattle to keep them moving

The combination of their low height off the ground and the innate agility of Welsh Corgis would allow them to avoid the hooves of the larger animals

They were officially recognised as a native British breed by The Kennel Club in 1928, but Cardigans and Pembrokes weren't seen as separate breeds until 1934

The Queen owned more than 30 of the sandy, short-legged dogs throughout her reign.

She was gifted her first corgi, called Susan, for her 18th birthday from her late father King George VI. Ten generations of her corgis then descended from Susan.

Her dogs were given the Royal treatment having their own rooms with elevated wicker baskets and meals of beef, chick, rabbit, liver, cabbage and rice being prepared by a chef each evening.

Sometimes the Queen herself made the dog's meals. But her late husband was said to have 'loathed' the dogs' yapping.

She left behind two dogs - Sandy and Muick - who are now cared for by Prince Andrew and the Duchess of York at their Royal Lodge home.

Muick, pronounced Mick, joined the royal family at the start of 2021 along with a so-called 'dorgi', a cross between a corgi and a dachshund, called Fergus.

Fergus, who had been named after the Monarch's uncle who was killed during battle in the First World War, died after just five months.

He was later replaced with a new corgi called Sandy, as a 95th birthday present from Prince Andrew and his daughters, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie.

Meanwhile Muick was named after Loch Muick on the Balmoral Estate.

Palace sources speaking to the Daily Mail previously revealed the beloved corgis were 'with [the Queen] in the room' at her deathbed when she died on September 8 at Balmoral.

They then touched people's hearts when they made a poignant appearance at Her Majesty's funeral on September 19.

As the late monarch's coffin made its way from London to its final resting place in Windsor, Muick and Sandy waited for the processional to pass, to see the Queen for one last time.

The dogs were seen waiting in the quadrangle with two aides before the late monarch was laid to rest in St George's Chapel.

The most loyal public servant of Queen Elizabeth II should belong to her Corgi.
These puppies have been at the Queen ’ s feet for generations, accompanying her for nearly a century, and the Queen has raised more than 30 Corgi in her lifetime.
The combination of the Queen and the Corgi is as natural as the British drink tea and cake, making the little-known breed known around the world.
This brown puppy with pointy ears bustled around the Buckingham Palace, following the Queen from room to room and appearing in official photographs.
In the 2012 London Olympics opening video, the puppies even performed as part of the show.
In the film, the Queen of England leaves Buckingham Palace accompanied by Daniel Craig's 007 agent and climbs into a helicopter, leaving behind her Corgi dogs Holly, Monty and Willow.

As a child, the Queen loved the Corgi.
When she was seven years old in 1933, little Elizabeth visited the home of a friend who had a dog and wanted to have one. Her father, George VI, gave her her first dog, Dookie.
However, the royal Corgi family, which has been with the Queen for more than 70 years, originated in 1944 when King George VI gave her her Corgi, Susan, on the Queen ’ s 18th birthday.
Even as the Queen went on her honeymoon and ascended to the throne at the age of 25, Susan accompanied her.
She loves Susan so much, and the Corky dogs she keeps are all descendants of Susan.
The Queen stopped keeping Corgi in her 90s because she didn ’ t want the puppy to become an orphan after her death. In 2018, her last Corgi dog, Vero, died.
Despite this, in the last moments of her life, the Queen was accompanied by two "Dachshund" dogs, mixed with the Koki.
One of the puppies, Vulcan, died in 2020.
But in March 2021, it was rumored that the Queen had two more Corgi puppies.
The royal family was battling a series of crises, including the Queen ’ s husband, Prince Philip, who was in declining health at the time.
The two Corgi are said to have been with the Queen when she moved to quarantine at Windsor Castle in the western suburbs of London during the outbreak.
Royal writer Penny Junor told The Sun that the dogs loved the Queen very much and never disappointed her.
She said, “Of course, the Corgi won ’ t go to Los Angeles for an interview. ”
She was referring to Prince Harry and his wife Meghan, who spat bitterly during an interview with the famous Oprah Winfrey, accusing the royal family of racism and not supporting them.
According to Brian Hoey, author of Pets by Royal Appointment, the Queen loves her Corgi so much that she prepares her own food for them.
Every day at 5 p.m., the servant prepares the dog ’ s filet steak and chicken breast for dinner, and the Queen personally waters the gravy.
However, not everyone in the royal family loves dogs.
According to Hoy, the Queen ’ s husband reportedly doesn ’ t like the stumbling, short-legged puppies because they bark too much.
