Sarasota #4



These next three shots show Hugo Schmitt practicing "Kernaudi", "Minyak", "Mudu", "Sabu" and "Icky" shortly after arriving from the Hagenbeck Zoo in 1947.
John North insisted he needed more to fill out the ring so he added "Minnie", "Dolly" and "Sudan" from the Ringling herd.
(No Gary Hill not our Mudu)
