This is what it is all about, folks. WorldWide love and appreciation for animals, with agenda's left at home.

Mr Burck,
my name is Glenn Sullivan.I work elephants at Whipsnade zoo,UK.I enjoy your blog immensely and recently had the pleasure of meeting both Mr Woodcock and your blog sparring partner Mr Herriot recently at Showfolks.I am sure you already know,a colleague of mine passed on several youtube videos of the Casselly act at Monte Carlo.Unfortunately my pc skills are retarded and I can't provide them but just thought I would point in the right direction and maybe other blog participants would enjoy.Thanks for your time and look forward to you continuing your blog.

Regards
Glenn Sullivan

I wanted to share this email here, and to point out to folks that Glenn's institution is one of them at the forefront of the reproduction of Asian elephants world wide. I would also like to welcome Glenn to the blog, and we will look forward to his comments and insight. And Glenn, please call me Wade. You are very fortunate to have had the honor of meeting both Col. Herriott and Capt. Woodcock. They are example's of the greatness in the American Animal Training world. Now if I could only get the chance to shake Gerd Siemoneit and Fredy Knie Jr's hand.
Col. Herriott and I are not "sparring partners", we are "heated debaters". I respect John very much. I am sure you have heard the joke, the only thing 2 elephant trainers can agree on is the fact, that the 3rd one is doing it wrong. LOL
Regards,
Wade
