From dancing horses to showers of living cats and dogs, this book
presents the peculiar history of performing animals and zoological
wonders. "The Cat Orchestra & the Elephant Butler" presents
astounding tales from across the rich folklore of the animal
kingdom: a learned pig more admired than Sir Isaac Newton by the
English public, an elephant that Lord Byron wanted to employ as his
butler, and a dancing horse whose skills in mathematics were
praised by William Shakespeare. Jan Bondeson tells ten fascinating
stories of myths and hoaxes, beliefs and Ripley-like facts,
concerning the animal kingdom. Throughout he recounts - and in some
instances solves - mysteries of the natural world which have
puzzled scientists for centuries.
