The Saddest Show on Earth.

Since the 14^th century Circuses have been prevalent around the world. It wasn’t until the 19^th century when Wild Animal shows have been introduced, and since then over multiple occasions of abuse have been reported, and most likely more have been not reported. It all seems like fun and games until you realize these animals have been deprived of their freedom and soul. You may think that the owners of these circuses treat these animals with respect as they are deemed with fame and love from the crowd.

     Well, unfortunately this is not the case- there has been multiple reporting of abuse, let alone the freedom that was unwillingly deprived from these animals, obviously with no say. No contract has been signed by any of these animals to perform in front of a crowd, unknowingly ignorant of what goes on behind the scenes of these animals.                         

Reportedly 96% of these animals are spent inside cages- transporting them to new towns, inside these cages the animals are inside looking out, at the freedom they could be living in.  As they lie in their feces, rarely feed and rarely hydrated. 

“Their routine care is often entrusted to seasonal or temporary employees who have little or no experience caring for such animals” confirmed by The Humane Society of the United States of America. Obviously these animals are in the wrong hands, Merely looked at as just a prop. I know beanie babies that were taken care of better than this sick display. This is no joking matter, this is reality and this goes on every single day. Simply writing about this matter really doesn’t show just what really goes on behind the scenes of the circus. You’d don’t even have to see what goes on behind the scenes to feel the aurora of abuse that goes on. Just keep this in mind, if you go out to the circus or watch any videos of animals you may see in the circus, They may seem like participants of this act but they are slaves. No words can just fathom what goes on; I really don’t even see the point in writing this without action- Every person should be aware of what goes on, so action can be made. So, the blatant disregard of each soul, of each animal is ended, and each animal doesn’t have to go through anymore physical and psychological abuse.

You can feel the revolt the animals wish they had with each sound of a whip when the animals does something wrong that they never wanted to participate with in the first place.  According to the AWA, (Animal Welfare Act), there have been minimal standards of animal care to be met, but every major circus has been notoriously known to violate each one. Please help me expose the heinous culture of these circuses to help ban animals from this Evil business.

THESE ANIMALS SUFFER. This should never be even close to even have a thought of consideration. These poor animals have no say whatsoever so there has to be somebody to make a stand for these animals and be listened too because this is just downright disgusting. I don’t have to tell any more statistics to express what goes on. Higher powers are aware of this going on and still allows it. What will be done to have this madness end?
