[Circus Carnivore and the Zoo have a long running arrangement with the former using the latter's animals in Day Shows. It's a win-win for all involved, menagerie included.
End of the show season today for most of the exotics. From here on out until spring, it'll be primarily domesticated animal acts. Zoo and Carnivore have climate control, the short journey between the two does not. Domesticated performers - from pet to barnyard - already live at or near the circus. Unlike cold loving Siberian tigers and polar bears, many of the regular Zoo performers hale from warm habitats. Rather than stress them with the upcoming change of season's unpredictability, they get a winter break.
After a meeting with the head keepers, Carnivore's owner walks thru the park. First stop is at the pushmi-pullyu(s) exhibit. Llama version eagerly engages its visitor. Antelope, uninterested in joining its hammy relative's act, stays at rest - one head napping, the other cud-chewing.]
