What You Can Do to Make a Difference!
Spread The Word
- Start a circus campaign to educate people in your community about the treatment of animals in circuses. For more information see our Take Action section.
Don't Attend
- Never attend a circus that displays animals and ask your family and friends not to attend as well. Insist on animal-free entertainment. Circuses that employ only human performers are increasing in popularity, and offer families and communities the chance to be amazed and entertained in a cruelty-free manner.

Sign The Petition

Please sign Born Free USA united with API's petition to Kenneth Feld, Chairman and CEO of Feld Entertainment, Inc. and owner/producer of Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey animal circus.
Let him know that the use of animals in the circus is an unnecessary and inhumane practice that is harmful to both the animals and the public. Urge him to update his circus by making it compassionate and truly fun with only human performers.
