Star of "Water for Elephants" abused I just watched this and it makes me so sad :( Animal Defenders International : Animals in entertainment : Movie Star Electric Shocked |
That makes me sick, what I saw written on the video was nothing but excuses. I will NEVER go to a circus. Horrible horrible people that should rot. So sad to see that. |
I just went back to the site and watched another video: Animal Defenders International : Animals in entertainment : Shocking new ADI cruelty exposé shames UK circus industry It made me cry. I will boycott circuses as long as there are wild animals performing in them. |
I didn't even click on the links, I read about circus's years back & have not been to one...my daughter never has been & I believe she is enlightened enough to never take her children there. They do some sick, horrible things to those animals, especially what I read about the elephants. I can't look at any trained elephant without terrible images flooding my mind.:( A couple times a year a circus comes here, they put posters up & coupons out at gas stations, grocery stores, etc. to offer free kids tickets....I'm known to grab them all and throw them away.:mad::mad: If that means one less family is going then at least I can feel a little better about that. |
I can't view the links right now (emotionally)...but yes, circuses can be terribly cruel to their 'performers'. They train elephants w/ electrical shocks, rods, hooks. Elephants especially have big social needs and they bond w/ their family for life - which makes it just so sad :(. I don't/won't go to circuses or zoos, at all. I'm not sure if this is the same link, but this is about Tai too, from 'Water for Elephants': 'Water for Elephants' Star -- Claims of Abuse | TMZ.com |

I abhor circuses...went when I was 7 and saw an elephant with a chain around its leg tethered to a post...never liked anything about a circus after that..not too fond of clowns either... |
I won't watch these!! I've heard all about the abuse and besides not ever going to any circus, I hope people who do work there continue to expose this horrible treatment of animals so it can be stopped. |
I agree animals should not be allowed in the circus. But there are too any ignorant people out there that think it's fun. Well it's not fun for the animals. If most children knew that, they would not want to go. |
