Detailed Animal Action Report

The tigers seen in the film at the Vegas show were owned by Sigfried and Roy. They were filmed performing the Las Vegas act that they are famous for. There was absolutely no interaction between the actors and tigers. Eddie, Clark’s cousin, is seen picking up a box and turning it over, dumping snakes onto the ground. This scene was filmed in cuts. Rubber and real non-venomous snakes were used. The trainer placed rubber snakes in the box for the shot of the snakes falling from the box to the ground. Then he replaced the rubber snakes with real ones for the shot of the snakes slithering around on the ground. Other animal action consists of the dolphins at the Mirage Hotel seen jumping in and out of their pool and Wayne Newton and Ellen riding horses at his ranch in Las Vegas. The horses were the property of Wayne Newton and the scene was actually filmed at his ranch.
