Though the circus was an amazing experience when I was a child, I completely agree that this tradition is one rather left to the history books. It is inhumane to treat these majestic animals like entertainment apparatus. I hope we can have these beautiful creatures rehabilitated and set free, that they may have a chance at a real life out there in the wide open spaces.

Using animals against their free will is cruel. What have you done to get these animals to behave so tamely - please educate me because I can’t see how it’s done without pain on their part. Imagine being sad, in pain, hungry, thirsty and lonely but not being able to say or do anything about it.

I’m signing because circuses are inhuman. Treating animals like crap for others entertainment is not what life is all about. This is an act of pure evil and animals of all kinds deserve the exact same respect that we so desperately fight to have. Animals can’t speak up for themselves so it’s our jobs to speak for them.

I am signing this petition because I am strongly against all organizations that harm animals in any sort of way. This is beyond cruel and animals don’t have a voice, so I want to be their voice and end this suffering! They deserve freedom. We share the earth with these beautiful creatures, so they deserve to live in peace as they are far more loving creatures than humans today.

It's time government took a stand against animal abuse and shut all animal-based circuses down for good. It's outdated, cruel and has no place in our current society where we are trying to instill empathy and compassion in our citizens.
