As a skinny little boy in India, Damoo Dhotre ran away from home to join his uncle's circus and become an animal trainer. This was the boy who has since become one of the world's greatest animal trainers, appearing in circuses in Asia, Europe and America. Here he tells how his own training began and continued, how he trained his animals from lion cubs to tigers, elephants, jaguars, and in particular, his beloved leopard, Sonja.
