Is anybody surprised? I have no doubt they aren't Elephant Whisperers.

The hidden tiger, lion, bear training tapes would more than likely show you more of the same.

The thing that is so disturbing about it is that they appear to be hitting them for no reason.

Kind of like when some horses are about 7th in the stretch and going the wrong way with absoluely zero chance of coming in the money.

I'm shocked that a carnie would resort to animal abuse.

Thanks for this groundbreaking story, Pupkin.
