With 'Ringling Brothers' circus coming to my area, I began to wonder if there are any photograghs of the original Jojo? I have done a few searches on-line, but none of them have produced anything. Does anyone here know of any pictures of Jojo the still exist?

No way is that real...

he is supposed to have a rare genetic disorder that causes lots of body hair growth. many times these boys are considerd werewolves by superstitious cultures. while this has lessend in the last 50 years or so these people are often seen on the daytime talk shows,usually the morry povtich show. i will try to find the exact medical disorder that causes this condition. i know many a person with balding heads that would want to harvest a gene or two to help their condition.lol


edit. they contition is called congenital hypertrichosis universalis

If you had a condition that caused massive hair growth liek that it wouldn't be hard to trim it to look more like a dog, wich is what I would assume they did here.

It's just a guy in a monk...er, dog suit!

I think the pic is the real deal actually!

If you suffer from severe Hypertrikos you may actually have your entire body covered with thick long fur.

Is it just me, or does it look like Jojo could be related to this guy?

Aw, shucks... he looks like a man in a suit!
