What PETA Saw at Ringling’s NYC Show

To remind the world that animals are still suffering under the big top, PETA members live-tweeted what they saw at a Ringling Bros. show in Brooklyn. With whips and bullhooks in hand, trainers made sure the animals hit all their cues. Despite Ringling’s announcement that elephants would be off the road by May, what was seen at the show was nothing more than business as usual for the circus, which has profited from the suffering of animals for nearly 100 years.

You can speak up today by signing our petition and urging Ringling to end all animal acts immediately and retire the animals to accredited sanctuaries, where they can truly be free of painful bullhooks and whips and have some semblance of a natural life after years of mistreatment and deprivation.
