More painted elephants #2/KNBC-TV in Los Angeles


This is "Topsy" leased from Jungleland for this promotional gimmick in 1969.
She, along with "Frieda", "Jewel" and "Jackie" were sold to Beatty-Cole the following winter where she remained 1970 thru 75.
Also included in that herd was an elephant called "Ina" that went to Tommy Hanneford.

Is this Fredia who has Anger Management Problems. JC says this about her. I also suffer from this problem. I am working on it. Fredia can not wait to show cb how to play kissy face with her.

I have nightmares of something terriable happening to Fredia and a couple other Hawthorn Elephants in !!!!!. Because they can not fit into the way this place wants to be protraid [?] they are put down for the good of the other elephants. It will be said they are so brain damaged from thier treatment on the circus that there is no hope for them to ever fit in. Now is this something for me to be dreaming? May be this will help protect them in some way. It will never be said that I did not try to help in my own little way. Remember SUE
