Animal Menageire

Posted By on August 28, 2008

Animal Menagerie played two parts. Before the show people would walk the midway to eat, see the side shows and the animals. These were paid attractions. After the show, the menageire was the animal’s portable home in which they were bedded down for the night. The men who took care of the animals slept in the menagerie as well.
