The possibilites are endless, if we keep advancing

Helliott, Seeth, Holtzmeier, Gebel. I have used different species of feline to illustrate an advancement in the profession so as to eliminate the nonsense of "one is tougher then the other". What started in the 1900 as resignation, advanced to a willing "shoulder carry" to a "shoulder carry" outside the cage, to a "shoulder carry" in a toy store, without the aid of a collar or leash. I trust the advancements are obvious, and we now have an idea of "what is the standard."

That cat looks "resigned" as well! And the presenter looks like he's just been re-signed! [LOL Wade].
So we've advanced all the way to the toy store. The circus must be as bad as the movie industry which would much rather dummy up digital and robotic animals than employ real ones.

Wade, this must have drawn a stomping, cheering crowd in FAO Schwartz. Seriously, it's a picture that just begs you to say "Awwwww!".

Mary Ann,
Even more amazing, If I may say so my self, is that I did not have to train it. I was able to analyze the personality's of the 8 lioness available, and rightly choose the one best suited for the behavior. A skill that I have developed after 35 years "in the proverbial trenches". LOL
