These animals
Deserve better living conditions
And should be able to
Enjoy there lives in the wild
Or in a game reserve

We need to save our planet and its animals before we are no longer able to.... A circus is no place for animals its slavery.....

(Cape Town, 2019-12-06)

I am signing because I want to put an end to this inhumane act of entertainment!! Animals do not deserve this life and should be taken to a sanctuary to be cared for for the remainder of their days.

(Cape Town, 2019-12-06)

#5005

Those animals should be treated like that and need to be in their own environment

(East London, 2019-12-06)

#5007

These beautiful animals belong in the wild. Please act now.

I’m signing because having three animals in captivity being forced to perform tricks is just awful. It’s unnatural. Also, it teaches children nothing about how to treat animals. Disgusting.

Its animal abuse

(Cape town, 2019-12-07)

Many circuses around the world are going animal-free. This is a relic of the past, we don’t need this kind of animal abuse among us.

I've been to one of their shows and is was horrible to see how they torture.the lions and tigers, not to mention the small cages they have to live in

(Cape Town, 2019-12-09)

#5032

Circuses don't need animals if there performers have the talent. Animals in circuses is nothing but pure animal abuse!

(Johannesburg, 2019-12-09)

#5034

This is WRONG in so many ways possible! We are suppose to look after the animals,not use them for stupid entertainment. Really hope that this works to shut them down for good. I never went to a circus in my life,hate it.

(Cape Town, 2019-12-10)

Animals should not be in this type of captivity. Why must humans always exploit a gift such as animals for financial benefit? Cruel, greedy and selfish. Close these bastards down.

(Johannesburg, 2019-12-12)

Wild animals don't belong in cages and to perform for people's entertainment!!!!! Getting whipped to perform unnatural acts. No more!!!!!!!!

(Cape Town, 2019-12-12)

I'm signing because animals don't belong in a circus. They get kept in small cages, whipped until they perform and made to perform in an environment which is not natural to them.

(Johannesburg, 2019-12-12)

(Johannesburg, 2019-12-12)

Firstly Animals belong in the wild, and secondly the should not be bred and kept in cages for Human Entertainment, absolutely sickening that in this day and age they are still able to get away with this cruelty.

(Johannesburg, 2019-12-12)

#5074

Animals should not be used and taken advantage for peoples entertainment. The training they receive is cruel and they shouldn’t have to live in small cages and travel all over to be made a spectacle of. You want a circus use people to entertain people.

(Edenvale, 2019-12-12)

#5075

(Johannesburg, 2019-12-12)

#5094

This is such an outdated form of entertainment , it’s disgusting this still happens basically on the same line as gender discrimination and racisms etc, let’s move on from the 80 and 90s please.
Secondly when myself and colleagues at my work called them to confront them about an alleged abuse case the son personally threatened us verbally abusing us and proudly admitting that he has f@cked people up before and will do it again!

(Glenvista, 2019-12-13)

(Sandton, 2019-12-13)

#5145

Any and all animals need to be treated with utmost respect. Animals do not belong in a circus or any environment that does not serve the animals needs or true nature. These beautiful souls were not created to be used by greedy humans as their inhumane tools of entertainment.
