I’m positive that you’ve visited a circus at least once when you were a kid. Back then, you probably didn’t’ realize that those animals are the main attractions in the circus and that people are coming to see them, and not the other performers. Artist Sam Wolfe Connelly though so too when he made this drawings so let’s check them out, shall we?

There are four drawings by Sam Wolfe Connelly, and each of these drawings represents one of the animals that we see in circus. We have a wolf, wild cat, badger or raccoon, I’m not really sure what it is, and a bear. Since all of this animals are the main attraction of a circus, Sam Wolfe Connelly thought that people are coming to see the animals, and not the human performers. It seems that animals can run the circus on their own, and that’s why Sam Wolfe Connelly made this drawings. Each of this drawings represents an animal that is replacing the human performer in the circus and that way we got a wolf that eats swords, a wild cat with a whip, badger with throwing knives and a bear the breathes fire. Who knows, maybe animals will replace human performers in a circus one day, but until that happens feel free to enjoy in these drawings.
