Despite widespread and rapidly growing opposition to the use of animals in circuses, Garden Bros Circus continues to truck suffering elephants, horses, camels, ponies and dogs around the country, forcing them to perform confusing and painful tricks.

When not on stage or being 'trained' with bullhooks, electric prods and other weapons, these animals spend their lives in cramped trailers, chains and cages.

You can make a difference by speaking out against circus cruelty!

Your protest host is Lara Matisek. Please direct comments about this protest to Lara on the event wall.
