A Blog designed for discussion of topics related to, but not limited to, Circus, Zoos, Animal Training, and Animal Welfare/Husbandry. Sometimes opening up the dialog is the best starting point of all. And if for nothing else when people who agree and don't agree, get together and start discussing it, it will open up a lot of peoples minds. Debate and discussion even amongst themselves opens a window where there wasn't one before.

Rambly,
How would you like to have friends who would say, "wait a minute, let me get my camera and take a picture before you say anything."
Wade
Not quite the pictures of bottomless girls we were looking for, Wade. lol
Ryan,
If you get a chance go over to "the new circus" thread. I have been publicly accused of being nasty to young people. Go over there and show Dan what an knowledgeable young person is, and tell him how mean and disrespectful I am to young people.

good point. some friend. you gotta watch your back -- from the cats, and the predators.
Several years ago there was a Lion Country Safari (or something similar) at King's Island Park in the Cincinnati area. A "ranger" would be stationed in the lion yard in a Jeep should there be a problem. The "ranger" needed a break but it was quiet and felt he could relieve himself behind a berm. The lions got him. What a way to go.
Jim,
Speaking of which, Josip called me night before last and told me a guy was killed at a safari park in Austria that Josip was at when he was over there doing the Togni gig. Apparently he got 3 steps before the pants at his knees tripped him up.

Casey,
Get a hold of SMP. I think he can make a fortune at safari parks giving better option safety seminars.

I was out with some bear guys many years ago. First rule, they explained -- don't piss in the woods. "Mark" a tree and something's going to check it out. So if you spend all day in a bear blind and the bear spends part of the day checking out the trees you pissed on... that's just not really productive science. I could see the average drive through park "ranger" using the same set of bushes day after day. And I can see the cats figuring out, "Hey, if we just watch that spot, numb nuts will be back!"
Ben,
If we gave them "human emotions/thought processing" for a moment that would be called a tree stand, or a bait set. LOL

I would never make it out in the jungle,,,,lol
I have looked at this picture 30 times over the last 3 days and just this morning noticed the lion in the grass. Now all the comments make sense,,LOL
