The censored area did not paste last night. My tecnical director is apparently to busy to get back to me and explain why it didn't work. I will attempt it again. Anybody who want a copy of both of the threads, whole and edited, contact me at wburck3@aol.com

Wade Burck said......Mohan is one line, and the Sioux Falls siblings are two. Get it. The SHEBA you mention was from there, as was her sister SHEBA that Hawthorn had. How's that for confusing? But that is the reason such close record's have been keep in the breeding of Egyptian Arabians. Close to 200 year's worth of carefully passed down from generation to generation documentation. That way you don't have to reference somebody who has been around Egyptian Arabians for only a few years. No disrespect.

Example: if I was working an elephant that Buckles Woodcock had trained, my talents would be great enhanced just because I was presenting a Woodcock trained elephant. Again, no disrespect intended, just a fact Mr. McCarthy. Did you meet a tiger named Sultana who did a hind leg leap? She was from the Columbus cross. Two people that I know of told me they trained her, until I produced the video of me training her in Illinois. Her roached back and chapel hips, which her brother Gold had, are why she leapt. Try as I might, I could not get her to walk "normal."
That's neither here nor there, Sultana made a couple of people famous, and God rest her soul for that.

Mary Ann Howell said... Hello Mr. Wade Burck,...My name is Mary Ann Howell, and I am another admirer of white tigers. I have found your comments most interesting and informative. Unfortunately, I have never had the pleasure of watching you perform with them, but in March 1997 some Hawthorn tigers came to Detroit with the Shrine Circus, along with their trainer Othmar Vohringer. I still have the program which he autographed. Do you know the name of the big tiger that he used in the finale? Othmar sat on his back and held up a hoop, through which other tigers leaped. It was amazing. I very much admire these beautiful animals, and all of you who work with them.
