A Packed House At Jungleland
Posted By thecircusblog on June 22, 2012
This photo was taken in 1963. I do not recall the act. It looks like a goat walking an incline rope?
Thank you Randy for your comment….. It is a goat.

That is Roland Raffler, he also did the pig act in Mabels arena and is still working with the studios today with Animal Actors of Hollywood.Roland also trained and presented a complete goat act that worked for many years with the Animal Actors Revue. I had the pleasure of visiting the set for Pee Wee Hermens Great Adventure, and Roland and Cheryl Shawver were handling most of the animals on that show.
I remember Roland, I use to go to his house with my dad. He also had the parrots to that he trained. If you see him again tell him Hi.
