I do not know why, but I always, even as a child, was very sorry for the animals in the circus.
Too bad the elephant, which is must to stand on the ball or on the head, too bad the bear on a motorcycle and a tiger jumping into the fire ...
Somewhere in my heart I knew that the animals do not like to stand on the ball or jump through fiery hoops.
What animal is forced to do it. Violence, beatings and starvation.
To make it fun ...
Therefore, I agree with this statement:
"Circuses with animals - a relic of the past, rooted in ancient Rome, "glorious" gladiatorial battles, mass persecution of animals and people in the arenas - for the amusement of the bloodthirsty crowd."
In many countries, in whole or in part is prohibited use of animals in circuses - including Germany, Great Britain, Greece, Spain, Italy, Sweden, India, Finland, Switzerland and Denmark, France and others.
Animals - are not clowns ...
