"DEATH AND DISEASE" "These are some of the last pictures of Joyce and Hattie." "Two of the five circus elephants who performed together in the small traveling circus Vargas." "Both died last week." "It is believed tuberculosis was the cause." "Joyce died at 47 years old." "Hattie was 27." "Way short of the 70 year average life span for elephants." "Over a period of ten months, Joyce shrunk from a masive 8000 pounds to an amesiated 7000 pounds." "Reports say, both elephants were forced to perform almost until the day of their death." "This photo of 48 year old elephant Joyce was taken May 6th, when Circus Vargas put on a show in Garden Grove." "Joyce died 3 months later." "L.A. County public health officials say, she died of tuberculosis." "80 % of her lungs were destroyed." "Experts say, even in life 9 year old Heather was probably stunted." "Her body smaller than it should be." "Now lying in the trailer, where she died somewhere between Nevada and New Mexico yesterday." "It was 94 degrees here yesterday." "Who knows what it was, where they were traveling." "And so heat prostration is certainly a possibility." "Bicycle police found the trailer rocking back and forth in a hotel parking lot."
