An insight into the training of wild animals for the circus.
"You can tame a wild animal up to a certain point, but you've got to always realise, however tame you personally think the animal is- he's still a wild animal and you have to respect him for it."
In this, the first of two programmes, Mary demonstrates her methods with seven Bengal tigers, Judy the young African elephant, and introduces Marquis the lion to the big cage for the first time. Recorded in the Kelvin Hall, Glasgow.
