Gollmar Bros. Circus 1922 #3


Maybe Richard Reynolds can give us the background on this young hippo "Victor".

Back in the 90's Ringling Red had a hippo act. Does anyone know if the hippo, "Zusha," and her trainers are still performing? Did they perform in any other circuses before or after Ringling?

They also had a rhino on the Blue Show named "Tank". I never saw either but in reference to the hippo, a nameless friend of mine who was with the show said that it had an Egyptian theme and a well known member of the Production Staff was referred to as "The Grand Sphincter".
