Last year, UK MPs championed the rights of animals by passing the groundbreaking Animals (Low-Welfare Activities Abroad) Act, designed to halt advertisements for harmful animal attractions abroad, including elephant rides. Despite this progressive step, the law remains unenforced. Advertisements are rampant, and elephant rides abroad are rising.
It’s been over a year, and the necessary list of banned activities – critical for the act’s enforcement – has yet to be defined. This delay allows unethical tourism businesses to flourish, promoting the mistreatment of elephants and other animals to UK citizens.
Elephant attractions are not harmless fun. They involve severe animal suffering – beatings, confinement, and psychological trauma.
Please sign this petition to demand this law be enforced and stop the promotion of cruel animal attractions!
