How long, Ringling Bros.??

So, Ringling Bros. might finally get in trouble for all of their years of elephant abuse? I guess you can only deny it for so many, many years...

Unfortunately, the "performing" elephants are poked with metal rods to get them to be obedient because that's the only way they will listen. One day, I pray, a circus will be a place where kids and their parents can go to see PEOPLE who are willing of their own free will to perform for them and not some poor, innocent animals who were stolen from the wild for man to profit. How is this humane?

Ringling Bros. thinks that animal rights activists are on a "crusade" to do away with having circus animals...DUH..anyone with feelings should want that. Don't they see the success of Cirque du soleil, without using animals in their shows?
