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.

Vintage Knie Paper
1946 designer Hans Falk Voitech Trubka
1950 designer Fauquex Who is this?
1960 designer Marcus Campbell Is this Gilbert Houck?
the only thing I could find on the paper by Fauquex was one that was dated 1954, the lady portrayed on it is called Miss Trinity. I couldn't find any info about her, but maybe Mr Jim Clubb can find something about Miss Trinity.
Wade: here is a book which must be about the male Indian rhinoceros which Ralph S. Scott brought back to the Crandon Park Zoo in 1970 from Nepal. It is titled "The Rhino With Glue-On Shoes" by Claire MW. There's a picture of him on the cover. It has to be him. No other rhino ever wore shoes. Sincerely Paul
Well it finally happend http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2534297/A-roaring-success-worlds-white-ligers-Four-brothers-rarest-big-cats-planet.html
Bjorn, Thank you for the link, friend. It again proves what I have said in the past, that hybrids are indeed capable of reproducing, and are not sterile as was thought for many years. It is a shame that something like this is being produced. What is the purpose?
Poster with lady is 1954; correct name in the program looks to be Miss Tintye. Be sure I'll track who she was.
Other posters: 1975 yes, is Louis, the year he introduced tiger on elephants; the 1960 is Houcke. The first one is Vojtech Trubka, and is the most sought after, Herni being a very important Swiss painter.
