For Radar

Here are a few shot's of the zebra pens you asked about the other day. Fine sifted sand is hauled in at the beginning of the date's and put in all the pens. Sawdust is only used if the lot it's self is wet before the show set's in. Note the "trench" around the menagerie tent. That is done when set up is completed in each spot around the menagerie tent and the performance tent. If it should rain during the date everything is dry as a desert. If it doesn't rain the trenches are covered over and packed down when the show leaves. As of yet it hasn't rained, but if it does, the wonderful thing is you can walk all the way from the marquee through the concession/hospitality tent, through the performance tent and and into the tiger tent without ever going out side.
