1994 Paul Gutheil Pictures #1

Paul took this picture in Philadelphia where one day Bonnie Feld aksed to come in the tent, she and another lady brought in a group of kids. Surprisingly she asked each elephants name and when we got to "Karen" she asked, "Is Karen mean?" and when I answered, "So I am told." both ladies started laughing so hard we had to stop for a while. Wasn't until later that I picked up on the joke. This was also the first time these elephants were ever in an exercise area. Kenny had brought the subject up several times saying that Axel would never go fot it. Mike Melsen moved some wagons around and the deed was done, with 23 elephants we would alternate groups that were compatable. Graham's three were right at home.
