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.

Jim, That was my guess also. Kinda reminiscent of the old Hagenbeck polar bear cub acts with some 50-60 young animals sitting on chairs. Accepting the past we have to assume it was as easy as clubbing/shooting the mothers to get together a group such as this.
Young elephant seal pups?
