I believe these are Sacha Houcks Fjords, and somebody else was presenting the exotic act in his recent absence.

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.

Wade,
This is Peter Freeman known as Old Regnas. He has a comedy dog act on Pinder and took the Exotics after Sacha left the show.

Hi Wade and Vincent,
Why did Sacha leave Pinder?
Chris
Interestingly (I think), nobody took over the elephants in Sacha's absence, despite the presence of such animals being featured on much of the publicity!
Peter is brother to Mike Sanger, whose comedy dog act has been seen with RBBB and (I believe) BAC. Mike has also presented the Regnas act (Regnas being Sanger in reverse) which was origianted by their father, Pat.

John,
Possibly they would give you a hiding with their trunk, or worse, and needed a skilled person with them. One of the greatest shames done to animals is the fallacy that anybody can work with certain ones. It takes a much different skill level with some, and I have seen many great animals destroyed over the years by ineptnesses and ignorance. I don't know about the elephants there now, but the Pinder elephants have had a history of problems back in the early 2000's.

John,
You are correct--Pascale and Mike were on the Big Apple Circus 2000-2001 in "Clown Around Town," which also featured Tom Dougherty, in Barry Lubin's absence.
