Zerbini Family Circus

I swear, most of the animal abusing circuses are all related or inbred.

The Zerbini’s apparently live in FL and MO and elsewhere.  On Facebook in 2016 Julian and Darinka Zerbini (married) claim to live in Myakka City, FL, but when they applied for a FWC license in FL they listed their home address as:

TARZAN ZERBINI CIRCUS 2317 S. HALL STREET WEBB CITY MO 64870-0000 (417)781-4883

They also are listed at 58-C-0012 Zerbini, Alain Alain Zerbini Circus Production 3327 51st St. Sarasota 34235

Julian is the son of Alain Zerbini and claims to now run the Zerbini Family Circus.  They are in their early twenties, and they are taking the helm from father Alain Zerbini. It appears that they are living in an Allegro Class A motor home (brown) with at least triple slide outs and Florida plates.
Julian’s sister, Melody Ramirez, is the Ring Master.

In the past they were housed at the Rosaire Family Circus compound in Sarasota.  The Rosaire’s saw the handwriting on the wall, as public attitudes began to oppose abusing animals for circus acts and changed their name to Big Cat Habitat and claim they rescue cats now, which has never been proven to us.

Melody Ramirez stated on Facebook that Alexander Crispin, who was killed by a tiger during his show, was her uncle and Felicia Frisco stated on Facebook that the Zerbini Circus was at Kay Rosaire’s circus compound called Big Cat Habitat in January 2013.  https://911animalabuse.com/alexander-crispin-zerbini-circus/

“Nerger’s Splendid Tigers” is an old-school circus act that’s billed as the largest traveling tiger show in the United States. The Nerger Show features one dozen tigers which are forced to jump through flaming hoops, form pyramids, play leapfrog, and “dance.” The act is run by Judit and Juergen Nerger, a pair of German tiger trainers who have worked in circuses throughout eastern Europe for nearly 30 years before coming to the United States. Over the years, the Nergers and their tiger show have worked at the infamous Cole Bros. Circus, the Tarzan Zerbini/Royal Canadian Circus, and many small “shrine circuses” across the country. They also perform at fairs and festivals.  https://911animalabuse.com/nergers-splendid-tigers/

Predators Unlimited regularly provides live exotics for photo shoots, commercials, TV, movies, and music videos. According to their website, their animals have appeared in C.S.I Miami, Dexter, Law & Order, and, ironically, Fatal Attractions. Oh, and that “elephant appreciation event” was billed as a “fundraiser for elephants” on Predators Unlimited’s Facebook Page.! Which sounds nice, until you learn that it was a fundraiser for Patricia Zerbini, a retired circus trainer who makes a living renting out elephants to fairs and circuses. The Possmans “drove all the way to Gainesville” with a young African lion and displayed her in a tiny “circus wagon” because they wanted to raise money “for elephants.” Or for the right to pimp out exotic animals for profit.

The Mexico Circus the Zerbini’s  perform with is called the Circo Suarez. And the Suarez daughter claims Crispin Zerbini was her uncle.

2011 From: Josip Marcan to his friends:
In all of the inspection reports online by USDA, of all of the Zerbini’s, none of them ever listed having big cats, yet big cats are in their shows.  This 2013 citation by USDA stated that Alain Zerbini was transporting tigers from FL to MO without any paperwork stating who the tigers belonged to.
