At the age of sixteen in 1876, Arthur Wardle had his first painting, a study of cattle by the River Thames, displayed at the Royal Academy and this led to a lifelong interest in painting animals. In 1880 Wardle was living in Camden in central London, but by 1892 artistic success enabled him to move to the more upscale neighborhood of St John's Wood.
Arthur Wardle was very productive and up to 1936, he had exhibited over 100 paintings at the Royal Academy and the Society of British Artists. He painted an assortment of animal subjects with equal skill be they domestic or exotic animals including leopards, polar bears, and tigers such as The Deer Stealer painted from sketches that he made at the London Zoo.
