After learning how the circus’s have treated their animals, my heart is turned inside out.
The circus Chimpanzees were sold to research labs after they became too strong to handle.
It is no wonder the elephants turn on their trainers, what do they expect after a lifetime of beatings, chains, and intimidation?
My family and I will never got to the circus…….

Please please don’t go to the circus. Even most zoos are questionable. I feel so bad for these animals. I just saw Tyke’s death on NGC on tv and couldn’t stop crying. This poor animal.

Deanna,
Thank you for teaching your children about the evils of the circus. Tyke and her fellow circus captive will surely be happy to know.

I watched tyke on the news back in 94, We knew long before the horrible scene that was about to unfold that day that these beautiful animals Have had enough.But it seems that no one is listening.I cried then, and i still cry when i think of tyke, and alot of other elephants who have be tortured all for “entertainment”.When my kids were small i took them to the circus which came through town.At the begining of the “show” a monkey handler hit one of the lil chimps with a stick on his lil head,I was sickened and vey angry.I grabbed my son and daughter and left! I told my husband and about half of the town!that was 19 yrs ago, Since that day i have boycotted anything that has to do with the circus! RIP Tyke

Good work on spreading the word on things like this. More people need to be education on these kinds of things and so many other nonhuman related issues. We need a kind of awakening and heightened awareness to spread throughout all cultures. It’s great to see sites like this contributing to that ultimate goal. Let’s together wake up the humans on this planet!
