As they cannot be bothered to show any action shots other than via a site so few can be bothered with, I cannot be bothered to post a link to their own site.

Ignorance is bliss, bliss is happiness, I am happy...to draw your attention to the possible connectivity in the foregoing.

they are hardly likely to bring animals along at a time when you are restocking your freezer.

howard have you seen the size of the elephant steaks,you would need a freezer the size of buck house just to store them.

When the Circus came to Elms Vale Rec. my old mate Jack Robinson who lived on Elms Vale road used to collect the elephant manure every morning for his garden.
He grew some of the best vegetables in Dover thanks to the elephants.

the same place where the elephants were kept whilst not performing (where the houses are now(chesnut rd)
elephants were chained up, all day/night with about 5/6 feet to walk
cruel or what

depending on your state of mind kieth,is keeping a human person locked up 23 hours a day in a cell 12 by 8 cruel as well.

The difference(as you well know brian) is that at least the prisoners to whom you refer have done something wrong to warrant the punishment.
with the animals who cant speak back its the opposite,
presume by your comments your happy for that cruelty then

kieth,animals/humans locked up both the same and no argument about it,at least the human are not shakeld any more and with no animals in the circus any more that cant be true anymore.
ps,as a thought kieth would you like a 5 ton elephant running amok your house and garden.

would be a lot easier if elephants were left alone in their own habitat.
