Congratulations to them...the protests have paid off! The elephants will live out their lives at an elephant sanctuary.

Yes, they did!

Attendance was way down...maybe the lions and tigers will be next to be retired.

I only hope the poor elephants are going to a nice sanctuary and not a dog food plant! It's going to be pretty expensive to house non-working elephants.

Good news.

I also hope the big cats will be the next to be eliminated from circus shows.

Now, let's take a look at how rodeo animals are treated. Especially the calf roping event.

I posted about the sheep wrangling event - little kids on the back of terrified sheep.

The post was removed, for some reason.

That's good news. I've seen some pretty horrible footage on how they are treated in order to get them to do circus acts.
