These animals are not meant to be used for a circus.

I believe in freedom of all animals this is animal cruelty.....

Using animals for our entertainment is cruel and this circus is no different. Animals belong in their natural habitat, or in a spacious environment for educational purposes. Not inside a hot tent and a small cage to earn you money and entertain your small mind.

It is not acceptable. Animals should not be used for the entertainment of humans and not be kept in shocking conditions in captivity. WRONG

Animals aren’t toys. People who use them in a circus should be the ones to be whipped and abused!

I'm signing because I do not believe that animals should be in captivity nor should be using as entertainment in any shape, way or form.. Especially to make money out of them at their expense.

Animals should be treasured and respected and should be living their lives in the wild.

I didn't even enjoy the circus as a child because my heart knew it was wrong.

No circus should make use of animals against their will!
It is disgusting that humans take beautiful beasts like these and put them to use to MAKE MONEY. Humans are so selfish!
No animal should have to live a life outside of its natural habitat! Absolutely disgusting that circuses are allowed to train wild animals!

#5838

Animals do not exist for our entertainment, for us to abuse. They are meant to live their best lives. Just like any human being would like to. Free, without cages. Without food restrictions. Without pain and oppression.

(Umdloti, 2020-01-08)

#5841

Wild animals should be free

(Knysna, 2020-01-08)

#5843

We all know how terrible this animals are treated behind closed doors. And how they are horribly and aggressively trained to be the puppets people sit back and watch at a circus. Wildlife are not human's toys and why should people like this have a right to break down their spirits and true nature not to mention the physical endurement and pain these wildlife animals have to go. This is just plain cruel.

(Port Elizabeth, 2020-01-08)

Using animals for entertainment is cruel and outdated. Mclarens apparently has an amazing human performance where the humans get paid and chose to perform. Down with animals in the circus!!

Because these animals deserve to be cared for and have some sense of freedom. They have none living in cages and trailers and are constantly abused.

(Johannesburg, 2020-01-08)

#5881

(Port Elizabeth, 2020-01-08)

The circus is cruel and disgusting. The people running it should be shoved in cages and pushed around forced to do ridiculous things for our entertainment. The whole thing is utterly disgusting!!!

(George, 2020-01-08)

Why is this still going on? This is the year 2020 we need to evolve beyond these primitive practices!! Animal abuse is a unnecessary form of entertainment that nobody enjoys!! How are they still in business? People need to take a stand and stop supporting these monsters!!

#5906

Animal cruelty!!!

(Cape town, 2020-01-08)

#5909

No animal should have to suffer such cruelty for our amusement. They should be free to live where they belong. Protect them - look at how incredible the holograms were at the circus in Germany, it can be done!

(Cape Town, 2020-01-08)

#5911

Because keeping animals in captivity is cruel and inhumane. It's time this came to an end.

(Durban, 2020-01-08)

#5912

Animals are not on this planet for our entertainment

(Pretoria, 2020-01-08)

#5913

Animals belong out in the wild, not to be used to do tricks for people. This is cruelty. Shut them down

(Richards bay, 2020-01-08)

(Randburg, 2020-01-08)

#5918

Animals dont belong in a zoo for peoples entertainment, even though they are not wild they deserve n better life in a sanctuary were they can run free.

(Port Elizabeth, 2020-01-08)

(Queenstown, 2020-01-08)

#5929

No to animal cruelty

(Santa Rosa, 2020-01-08)

#5930

It is unnatural for lions and tigers and snakes to be doing tricks at all. They should be in the wild where they belong because they are wild animals.

(Durban, 2020-01-08)

#5931

I wouldn't like a life like that... living in a cage, being humiliated for others entertainment
...
Animals don't have a voice to speak for themselves and i can't assume what they would want but if it was me in that cage i know i wouldn't like it very much and most people would agree with me on this i'm sure

(Potchefstroom, 2020-01-08)

#5933

Wild or domestic animals dont belong in a circus

(Port Elizabeth, 2020-01-08)

#5941

I do not support the use of animals in circuses, it is cruel , inhumane and unnatural. In order for animals to perform these “incredible” trapeze acts they are abused, forced into confined spaces and often beaten in order to surrender to their trainer. This is not a place for children to be educated on animal behavior or a place for entertainment.

(Cape Town, 2020-01-08)

#5946

No animal should be treated like a prisoned criminal.

(Germiston, 2020-01-08)

(Thabazimbi, 2020-01-08)

#5954

These animals should be roaming around free in the wild. Not in changes doing tricks to imuse us. If you want to see wild life go on a safari

(Norberg, 2020-01-08)

#5956

Animals should NOT be in Circuses anymore!!

(Savannah, 2020-01-08)

#5959

I sincerely believe there is no place for big cats - or other wild animals - to be coerced into "performing" for human entertainment. Leave the entertainment to be provided by humans, who chose what they are doing and why.

(Walkers Fruit Farms, 2020-01-08)

#5964

Animals are not playthings for human entertainment. Animals are God's gift to this earth and humans have no right to exploit them for monetary gain!

(Durban, 2020-01-08)

(Durban, 2020-01-09)

#5976

Animals deserve to be free. It’s cruel and sickening for us humans to take pleasure out of an innocent animal sitting behind bars. You wouldn’t put a human for show so why would you an animal

(Dunkerque, 2020-01-09)
