Petition: Wild Animals Are Still Suffering in Circuses and Fairs Across the United States

Wild animals in circuses and traveling acts allegedly endure brutal conditions that no living being should face. Ripped from their families, confined to filthy enclosures, and forced through painful performances, these animals are reportedly beaten and psychologically broken into compliance. Elephants, big cats, bears, and primates deserve protection, not exploitation for cheap entertainment. You can take action right now by signing the petition to demand change.

Illinois has led the way, first banning elephant acts and later extending protections to other wild animals through HB 4255. But only 12 states have acted, leaving countless animals vulnerable. The USDA under Secretary Brooke Rollins must step up with a federal ban. Add your name at the petition now and push for the nationwide protection these animals urgently need.
