At the 2020 Tangier Shrine Circus, exhibitor David Donnert tried over and over to force a visibly distressed horse to lie down by striking him on the legs and hauling on the reins, which undoubtedly caused severe pain as the bit was pulled through his mouth. Trying to force a horse into a highly vulnerable position in front of rowdy crowds is unquestionably inhumane. Donnert also whipped a camel in the face, and notorious exhibitor Vicenta Pages hit lions and tigers with a prod as the animals flinched in fear and frantically searched for a way escape the ring.

This is animal abuse, and PETA is calling on the Tangier Shrine Circus to make this the last year it uses animals. Please, never attend a circus that uses animals.

PETA’s mission statement is that animals are not ours to experiment on, eat, wear, use for entertainment, or abuse in any other way: www.peta.org/about-peta/
