Marco Peters, daredevil and animal trainer with Ringling Brothers is now working with Sea Lions. He and his wife Kathi have their own foundation, Squalus Inc. (www.capitolint.com/Fairs/Sealions/sealion.htm). Marco Peters presents a Sea Lion show with Sea Lions that have been orphaned or beached.

The Houcke Family has their own web page...houcke.com/default.html

I think I have asked this question before, but would you know what ever happened to Katja Schumann, Paul Binder's wife? I have noticed that her name is not mentioned in connection with the Big Apple Circus anymore.

I saw Katja last winter in Sarasota and as far as I know she remains with David Balding's Circus Flora.

Ditto to Buckles comment. I saw her on Circus Flora last May in Charleston, SC.

Katja went to perform with "Levade" a Swedish horse show last year, then she returned to Circus Flora for the Spring/Summer tour. Her daughter Katharine is the company manager for Circus Flora. Yasmine Smart is now the horse trainer at the Big Apple Circus.
