I always found this sort of thing pretty amazing.

The Prop guys must have had some colorful philosophy about this thing on a soft lot.

Is this the same Hattie that was on Circus Vargas?

Yes it is, I had forgotten she was on the Vargas Show.
She was timid around around people but a Holy Terror on the picket line, fight other elephants for no apparent reason.
I remember someone leading an elephant past her and quick as lightning, knocked her over right on top him. He was hurt pretty bad.
