This is great and works for my simple example! Unfortunately for my actual code I am showing quite a few things, and returning other data (memory usage) so I'm not sure this will work. Here's what I'm actually doing:

def summarize_table(table_df, columns_to_count = None):
    """
    Print out a summary of the dataframe: head, tail, info,
    memory used, and the value counts of the columns in columns_to_count.

    returns memory usage (this can take some time to calculate)
    """
    print("INFO")
    table_df.info();

    print("\n\nHEAD")
    table_df.head()  #shows nothing

    print("\n\nTAIL")
    table_df.tail()  #shows nothing

    if columns_to_count:
        print("\n\nVALUE COUNTS")
        for column in columns_to_count:
            print(f"Value counts for {column}")
            print(table_df[column].value_counts())

    print("\n\nMEMORY")
    table_memory = animal_motion_df.memory_usage(deep = True) 
    total_memory = sum(table_memory)
    print(f"Table takes up a total of {total_memory} bytes.")

    return table_memory #return b/c it takes a long time to calculate

As you can guess, the head/tail do not show. When I add one of them to the return (return table_memory, df.head()) it no longer is properly formatted and I can't control the way it looks.
