Fifty Elephant Herd #1



I saw the show this year and "Siam" heads the list of the 20 newly added baby elephants in the column at right.
Elephants 49, 50 and 51 were three elephants for Baptiste Schreiber to train a Musical Elephant Act for the following season and Elephant 52 was a small African male delivered to the show while in Detroit and later became better known as "Diamond".

Buckles,
I saw in a previous post you mentioned the Blue show Rani was named such by Hugo after the first was sold to the Mexico City Zoo. Her original name was unknown. I think, by going through several years of your listings and others, it might have been Mysore.
