Description

New England Caravan, United States , was founded in 1830. New England Caravan closed down in 1834.

Comments / picturesBy 1833, this menagerie was owned by a partnership among Thomas Tufts, Hiram E. Waring and E. Waring. We have no proof that they owned it at its beginning in 1830. Nor do we know what animals they owned, as none of their ads in 1830 or 1831 list anything other than a huge horse, some nineteen hands high.

In the late fall of 1834, the menagerie went into Baltimore for a winter showing. At this time the title changed to H. and E. Waring & Co. In the spring they were combined with the Raymond & Ogden Menagerie to form unit #7 of The Zoological Institute.
