RINGLING BROTHERS CIRCUS PROTEST
Together with members of AZ for Animals and azvegan.com, we protested the use of animals in the circus at the America West Arena in Phoenix. The children held posters picturing circus animals that had been abused or neglected and handed out elephant stickers that said, “I’m an ele-friend. Circuses are no friend to animals.” Adults distributed leaflets detailing allegations against Ringling Brothers as well as the many options for circuses without animals. A local NBC station picked up the news story, interviewing two R&S members, one adult and one child. Background information for the protest came from PETA’s website, http://www.circuses.com/.
