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.
Joey, I think that is right, but I question whether walking to "her pool and back" with a leather strap around her jaw is really "training." Sound's more like somebody was bored, and had nothing else to do. LOL Wade
Wade, I remember reading in Bandwagon that Lotus was trained to harness by the incomparable "Cheerful" Gardner.
