For Jim Alexander and John Herriott and all others interested in old animal footage

1962: CHIMPANZEES PERFORM IN ZOO: Young

This site has some incredible old footage. After the chimp show which links the site, if you type "circus animals" in the search engine it should pull up 7 pages. Then the magic starts!!!!! There is old footage of the Moscow circus animals, Clyde Beatty, Ringling horses(who is doing the 4 horse hindleg walk, Johnny.) Ringling elephants, a Ringling lion act in which a lion escapes out of the arena and is running around the performance floor etc. etc. Pretty amazing stuff!!!!!!

I forgot to mention for Johnny Herriott who is as "computer challenged" as I am, to click on the monkey to go to the site. You will have to ask Roy or Cindy where the search engine is. LOL Sorry, that is the best I can do. The cheap skates at the site won't let me have it for free.
Be safe, Col.
