I love circus folks – you can’t imagine how hard they work and what the logistics are for a traveling show of this kind, especially including the animal care. Don’t believe everything the PETA folks say, please. I know better from personal acquaintances who work/worked for circus companies. The death of the zebra last year was due to injuries sustained in the stupid prolonged chase. The zebra could have been captured quickly and gently if the animal trainer’s advice had been followed.
I wanted to be a clown so badly when I was a kid. The circus is full of dreams. Love the pic. Thanks.
Can’t sleep. Clowns will eat my brains.

I love this photo! I wonder if Corky and Bimbo are in there?
Trivia question: Who played Corky? Don’t Google it.
I had no idea. So I googled it. Hah!
I used to carry water for elephants.
There’s a good book about that topic…
