This circus is abusing animals. This is totally unacceptable. Animals of any kind do NOT belong in a circus. Please shut them down and send all the animals to a safe santuary.

These beautiful animals need to be in a safe sanctuary to live out their lives since their lives were stolen from them when they took them away from their homes!

Circuses that use wild animal acts must be banned. It is cruel and extremely unnatural for these animals to be performing tricks. They should be in their natural environment in the wild.

(Durban, 2019-11-23)

#4469

I'm signing this because I believe the use of animals in circuses should be banned. I don't necessarily feel that they should be shut down but rather just not be allowed to use animals in their acts.

(Johannesburg, 2019-11-23)

#4488

I believe the animals should be free. They did not ask to be held in captivity and be mistreated, and be forced into doing things. Open your hearts and set these animals free so that they may also live with dignity. No animal would do that to another animal, but people do, if only there were more people with the hearts of an animal. What a wonderful world this could be.

Using animals in an unatural environment for human entertainment is so yesterday and is also cruel and inhumane. The circus will still survive without the animals forming part of the entartainment. Do the right thing Mclaren!

Mclaren circus uses animals such as lions, snakes, tigers, camels and many more. These animals should not be used as entertainment and these animals deserve to have a better life and be free from that horrible business. The animals deserve to be respected and to be free to live in the wild instead of cages for peoples entertainment.


THIS NEEDS TO STOP.

#4552

Animals do not belong in the circus! They are wild and it’s not natural behavior for them to perform tricks for an ignorant public!!! These animals are abused 24/7, forced to live in cramped, small metal cages and fed crap food!
THIS MUST END

(Fort Lee, 2019-11-23)

#4557

It's unacceptable, and I cannot believe these animals are not drugged or whipped to do what they have to do for the circus..

(Cape Town, 2019-11-24)

#4559

It is cruel to keep wild animals in such small confined spaces and also expect them to perform. They are just animals who need to be out in their natural habitats.

(Benoni, 2019-11-24)

#4560

In this day and age there is no relevance for a traditional circus. We have come so far to realise and understand that wild creatures are just that... wild and not performers. hey belong in the wild!

#4595

Animals should be in their natural environment and not used for any form of entertainment. We should be able to help rehabilitate and assist those animals where the need arises such as a natural disaster or other circumstance. It is our responsibility to protect them against abuse and cruelty, against being hunted and violently killed. It is beyond understanding and cruel to use any animal for any other reason then seeing them in nature. If you have any empathy, to look into a animals eyes that is caged or being used for rides (camels and elephants) the sadness is beyond heartbreaking. If you support such entertainment then you are incapable of love for other life form on this earth, and deserve their fate. To pet owners who love them unconditionally would you put your pet in a cage and on display, make them do tricks and let them be used as rides? I sincerely hope more people speak up against such cruelty, find other forms of income and entertainment, animals weren’t put here for your abuse. They have as much right to life and freedom as humans if not more. STOP animals being used as entertainment!
