It is never been imagine that suddenly when he trains his

fourth elephants for animals circus in Palembang on Sunday

24 July 2005, Silvi an elephant lifted the trunk and

swaying her body to Henry.This action has made the old men

who lives at Babaran street No 40 Yogyakarta caused

intensive medical care for a week at Palembang hospital.

But his health condition become worse critical and finally

Henry dies on Sunday morning 31 July 2005. From the

autopsy done, explains that the major cause for Henry

death is stroke and fat accumulation in his heart. The

triggering of the disease that cause Henry death is

swaying of elephant.

 

He was attending in Palembang, special to fulfill

invitation of Holiday circus to train circus that will be

performed at Palembang in 17 July 2005. Since 1960, the

man who was a Malaysian people has done training to tame

wild animals for animals circus that done with his father

(Chen Djang Fuk). He started to go around Malaysia until

Singapore to show circus exhibition with Sheum Circus

possessed by his father. Even Henry has learn about how to

tame wild animal in England.

 

In 1968, Sheum Circus came to Indonesia. By the help of

friend, Sheum circus become very famous and can travel

apparently has to pay a lot. As perfectly as human to tame

wild animals like an elephant, lion or tiger but they are

still wild animals that still have wild instinct that it

suddenly dangers human life around the animals. Especially

when they don & #8217;t treat properly as wild animals that

have freedom life everyday and can not express their

natural behavior. The limited life and lack of animal

needs has caused animals bearing boredom life, depress and

not welfare. One of the animals strategy to contend the

long of stress is by fighting or behave aggressive.

of human (trainer) will reflection. Not only human but

animals want more natural life and welfare condition.

Animals can tame and live together by becoming human

friend. Sometime they become wild and dangerous to human

life if their life will be annoyed.
