In 1947, my mother was 6 years old. It's nice to see great films before my time here on earth. Thank you for posting.
The elephant rolling out the canvas was Blanche, who taught herself this job to the marvel of career elephant men.
And then she is hooked around the trunk as a reward
@@nickkellerman1638 Blanche received no harsh treatment. Any handler would have known that tormenting her would bring upon him the wrath of other elephant men.
@@rogersmith4834 How do you know this?
@@TheClumsyAcrobat A veteran mentor of mine, Arky Scott, was Superintendent of Elephants on rhe Cole show, and told me how the elephants were protected from abuse by circus workers and public alike. That's how I know it. For you to know it, you need to get around career pros like Arky was, and if you ever get there---listen.
@@rogersmith4834 And how do you know he wasn't lying. He was getting money for looking after those elephants. So he could have been payed or persuaded to lie. Ringling and other circuses are over anyways.
The circus people seam nicer to the animals then other circuses.
I can't belive that the mother of little dumbo appear on this video this is her before the arrival of little jumbo! ❤😊
You can see in their eyes how depressed these elephants are.
You're no judge of elephants, nor their mental state. If you observe like an adult, you'll find the same general expression on all elephants. To state opinions, spend your lifetime with elephants like circus elephant men and the mahouts of India.
@@rogersmith4834 I dont have to take that from an alien who plays dress up & talks to a fish. Shouldnt you be trying to round up all your escaped alter egos?
@@grumpyguy112 don't listen to that mumb skull. Elephants are suffering in circus. Not exactly their habitat and beaten and electrocuted
This what they want you to think
Right and if you’ve seen what really goes on behind the scenes, you’ll think twice about visiting the circus
Oh my. Those who know, know.
They are treated very well *mono tone*
OMG too many elephants
Wonderful
That was an interesting 8:15 mins into the past
This one is even shorter: ua-cam.com/video/kWlFDD9-QpM/v-deo.html
I don't think jumbo cares about her blanket
1:00-Is there a bison and water buffalo along cows?
Ahhh back before this country turned into a freak show ! I bet those where awesome days.
@@MagicsMoney-uv1de So yes or no?
So that’s...13 abused elephants? And the horses are probably cramped in those two box cars there are dozens of horses there. And if jumbo weighs as much as four horses she needs *way* more food than that all four if my horses eat four/five hay bales a day. And you can clearly see the trainers using bull-hooks just to get them to lay down.
Those elephants looked magnificent! They were happily wagging their tails and were very well taken care of. It is not so much the size of an animal that determines its caloric needs, but its metabolism. Elephants normally have a very low metabolism, but as stated when working the diet was doubled. Obese animals are also unhealthy. Elephants are trained with bull hooks the same as horses are trained with whips and dogs with leashes. Just because the trainer has one, doesn't mean he is using it in an aggressive way. In fact you can see here the trainers just giving little nudges to certain parts of the body to direct the elephant. In the last circus train they put four elephants to a special carrying car, which was 89' long and about 7' wide. That is 156 sq ft per animal. They also stopped periodically to get the large animals out to let them walk around, and in summer the local fire departments would come out to hose them down--they loved it!!! So did the locals watching them frolic. You have no right to judge them just from watching this short film, in fact the evidence of the film shows how prejudiced, unjust, biased, hateful and harmful your ideas are.
@@JJosephS1 Elephants can wag their tails if happy, but it's mainly to swish away flies. And the bull hook is still sharp. If he used it for humane intentions, then why are those sharp hooks there in the first place? Oh yes, to attack the elephant. Just because the elephant is big, doesn't mean they can't feel the pain. It seems like you're trying to refer to them like objects that can't feel there.
And there wasn't clear, good evidence in this film to show that the elephants aren't abused. They are poked with sharp objects, forced to perform, and are put into tight cages day after day. They need a field to play in. And don't get that. And this was when the circus abuse was definitely rampant. So there's a good chance they were lying, or naive. It's 2021, and many of the animal circuses are being shut down. So it's time to get out of the 1900s. Look at good sources that tell you more about circus abuse. But definitely don't trust Peta. They tend to exaggerate things.
@@staceyevans2315 Yes, I agree PETA is a total sham. Please record your next conversation with an elephant where he describes his pain at being jabbed with a bullhook. Thanks.
I wonder too when have these elephants time to just be and elephant and do elephant things, not just stand in cramped spaces, work, train and perform?
Humans are disgusting, truly
Is this Noah's arc after the flood?
Stop Animal Abuse
it’s a show case of the animals in the circus chill nothing bad happening here
Even if you treat animals right that's not were they belong #BanCircus #BanZoos
Not all zoos only the roadside ones because some zoos have breeding programs for endangered species
i like to be clean to jumbo 🖤
Right "HE HAS taught her HUH" BEAT her to obEY!! just so CRUEL it needs to STOP!!!
Nice show....
Tiber septim will have mercy on you!
Where is part 2 of this
Thank you for asking: ua-cam.com/video/kWlFDD9-QpM/v-deo.html
They wouldn't show it because everyone is crying animal abuse and at the same time wanting to watch.
los Circos como este año no asían Carpas
Not sure what age group this was aimed at,but if at adult Americans it doesn't say much for average intelligence.I'm surprised the narrator didn't say' the cat sat on the bloody mat!Ígnorance is certainly bliss!
The comment is the biggest bullshit I´ve ever heart !! OMG!!
Why is everyone in the comments crying animal abuse, yet they are all here to watch. This was in the forties, my god get a life people. All those animals are dead.
HEY GR Look closely: the horse rears up to avoid the trainer's whip; the elephant "listens" to his trainer, who just happens to be directing the animal with a prodding pole to which a metal hook is attached. Sure, they were groomed, fed and "clothed" for the show. What you don't see, is the training regimen. Circuses are and have always been a venue that hides animal cruelty for the sake of entertaining people like you. You need a reality check.
I’m so happy that one of these circuses got banned
What a bunch of BS made to make people believe that the animals love to do this crap. That was back then, lets put an end to this abuse. It's the 21st century. Stop using animals for our entertainment.
Exactly
If you got an idea for something better than animals id love to hear it.
Peta are running a petition to ask france to ban the use of wild animals in the circus where it is still legal. You could find and sign that, would hopefully save more animals from exploitation.
@@grumpyguy112 well, your mom?
@@grumpyguy112 anything you don’t see the dancers and stuff there? And would you like to know what they actually do to the animals? They rip them away from their loving families when their babies. If they don’t do the tricks right they don’t get food. There stuck in cramped train cars filled with waste. Would you like if this was done to you?
I feel sorry for all of them: living in a railroad car, being made to do tricks.
holly crap
no animal should be in a circus, it just cruel and wrong.
Not true. There's nothing cruel about the circus. It's all lies spread by animal rights groups to spread their agenda.
Christian De La Hoz you must be trolling?
Christian De La Hoz bruh are u stupid? All these videos are literally proof U GOTTA BE EDUCATED
So is owning any animal!
I bet you have a pet aka entertainment slave.
would you like to know what they actually do to the animals? They rip them away from their loving families when their babies. If they don’t do the tricks right they don’t get food. There stuck in cramped train cars filled with waste. The animals are stuck in chains. You must be very *dumb* to say this is a hoax. Would you like if someone did this to you?
stop animal cruelty
THIS IS HOW ALL ANIMALS SHOULD BE TREATED FOR THE RINGLING BROS. BARNUM & BAILEY CIRCUS!!! HITTING THOSE POOR ANIMALS IS NOT THE WAY TRAIN THEM, THAT IS CALLED ANIMAL ABUSE AND CRUELTY!!! IF I EVER SAW A TRAINER ABUSE AN ANIMAL, I'D BEAT HIM DOWN AND LET THE ANIMALS EAT HIM!!!
George Rojo The animals in this video aren't treated well! Look good and close!
This is animal abuse. The media lies.
All animals in circuses are broken and beaten etc. Circuses are all cruel and inhuman and no place for wild animals.
@@metalbelles3662yes and it ain’t like it is in dumbo bc that ain’t real and that’s not all happy fun and sunshine for them animals
Ahhh back before this country turned into a freak show ! I bet those where awesome days.
This is just APPALLING this makes me SICK they abuse every single one of those animals MOVE YOUR 🤬ON YOU OWN
lousy commentator. How can the jumbo be happy with a blanket on top of it.
Thick skin? Hell no! They have thin and sensitive skin! And how will the narrator know that these animals are proud to wear their blankets?😮
sexy
Sorry What?????
Ahhh back before this country turned into a freak show ! And was the laughing stock for the rest of the world. I bet those where awesome days.
This is horrible, I hope that very few people fell for this rubbish
Let's all work together to stop this
