Flea circus Director Robert Birk says he was shocked to find all its 300 dead fleas within their transport box Wednesday morning.
The circus immediately scrambled to find and train a new batch, so could satisfy his commitments at an outdoor fair in the Western City of Mechernich-Kommern.
Michael Faber, which organises the fair, the Associated Press said that an insect expert at a nearby University was able to provide 50 fleas in time for the first show on Sunday.
Faber says that he hopes that "gets through this without need of further deaths."
Birk said it was the first time his circus had lost all his fleas in the cold at once.
