Chucko was a regular at Jungleland. Here he is on his greeting stage. Just behind him is the clown birthday house. Countless children had their birthday photo taken with him. It became a tradition at Jungleland to visit with Chucko. He was the “Birthday Clown” Nice comment Janice.

This Photo was taken during one of her a performance at Jungleland. Mabel did two shows a day every day except Mondays. I think she may have been the oldest working trainer in the business. Photo shot in 1967.

I remember this Hippo well, she was mean and hard to work with. She destroyed every area that we put her in for exhibition. If she had the chance she would nail you.

This cat was one of the best that Jungleland had for movie work. Not tame but very easy to work with. Her name was Sheba and was a Jaguar
