Bucky Steele Omaha, Neb. 1973


That looks like a young Buke, laying down on the end.  Bucky often laid baby/young elephants down if they had to stand and wait a long time during a street parade.  He told me it was easier to control them, should they spook and try to run away.  I don't know of anyone else doing that, but it sure made sense to me.  Any idea which elephants these might be in 1973.  I wonder if that is Zola stretched by Buke?
