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.

Sarasota, Florida--1944
This photo has no other identification other than location and year. I assume it was taken at the Ringling yard(there's a bone for you you, John Cooper) given the background. Can anybody identify the women in the picture? Here are a few of the feline folks that were on the show in 1944 that I am aware of from Bandwagon:
Alfred Court
Alfred Court's Wild Animal Dept.
Vincent Door, Asst. Superintendent
Wm. H. Madison, Geo. Scott, Thos. E. Wilson
Wilson Storey
Joe Walch
May Kovar
Arthur Konyot & Albert Ostermaier(These great's were not feline staff. But you probably already knew that. I just added them, because I think it is neater then all get out, that this great talent was in the same stable.)
