BO, THE ALL AMERICAN ELEPHANT

One of the most entertaining acts in the Circus world today is the enthusiastic antics of own Bo. He comes back to us after being featured for two great years on the Ringling Bros. - Barnum & Bailey, the Greatest Show on Earth. He is a fifteen year old elephant with a personality all his own. Bo will perform with distinct style only to discretely pull a fast joke on his trainer, Mr. George Carden. He can perform more than 60 maneuvers and he is always learning. Bo is constantly being trained and taught new tricks for his act. Show him a new move and in seconds, he will have it down pat. He will walk a plank with the style and ease of the ballet and prance around the ring with grace of a very large dancer. Watch as he skips to the beat of the music only to decide to display his vast musical talent with three different musical instruments. Bo can beat the drum and play both the harmonica and trumpet.

What a magnificent mammoth marvel. Ringling Producer, Mr. Kenneth Feld, says "Bo is one of a kind. His performing sense is as great as any human's. He's a magnificent ambassador for his species."  And Bo is self-motivated. As soon as he hears his musical cue, he appears to extend himself to his maximum stature, starts bobbing his head and is ready to go! He loves the ring, the audience reaction and struttin' his stuff. No audience is disappointed in the unusual and remarkable act. He is definitely the most enthusiastic and smartest elephant ever!
