Germany’s “Circus Roncalli” did away with the oft-criticized practice of making trained animals perform during its shows, opting instead for a high-tech makeover.

Now the circus uses 3D holograms and other projections to create a brand-new kind of animal show, according to the German news outlet RP Online — and it looks like a genuine spectacle. Hologram horses appear out of nowhere, stampeding around the circumference of the circus ring. As they fade away, a giant fish is projected idly floating in place. A hologram elephant approaches part of the audience before recreating the sort of trick one might see in a traditional animal act, balancing on its front two feet, as seen in a 2018 video by Optoma, the company that made the hologram projectors.
