He's Better Than Beatty Lion Tamer David Hoover Proud
Mrs. George Hoover of 2213 Linden Ave. recalls her son David 31 owner and trainer of nine lions working in Sarasota and Fort Lauderdale area. He built a lion den in the family home and began drawing animal heads young. He skipped school to see Clyde Beatty, later met him, and now trains for Beatty. David bought three lions in Galveston and rose in the circus trade through self study and direct sourcing from Africa. He once declined Officers' Candidate School and chose lions over Xavier University.
