  1. We love elephants! That is why we do not go to circuses anymore, once you have seen dozens of photos of Ringling’s baby elephants being tortured trained to force them perform unnatural circus acts. No family fun to be had at an event that involves abusing and beating these intelligent beings to make them entertain us for a few minutes.

    Many of Ringling's performing elephants are young and the same age as a 5 or 6 year old child, since humans and elephants progress at the same maturity level we wouldn't allow anyone to beat our child with a fireplace poker to make them perform would we?

  2. Jane,
    Thank you for your comment and the information regarding the treatment of elephants. I appreciate your concern on the mistreatment of animals.
    I provided the informative post so that families can make their own decision on whether the event is right for their families.
    I welcome all comments on all the topics that I write so that we can have an informative discussion.
    Thank you for adding your opinion.

  3. I can only hope that other mothers were shocked into silence and that is why there are no replies to my comment, thank you for posting them Cristine. My family uses the Internet to learn about elephants and discovered there are two elephant sanctuaries in the U.S. The Elephant Sanctuary in Tennessee and PAWS in Northern California. Many of these sanctuary elephants were circus performers all of their lives. After following these elephants for a few years, we have no doubts that elephants mirror the human species. The Elephant Sanctuary has a live web cam too. With the Internet Africa is only a click away, we like to visit the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust often, they raise orphaned elephants until they are old enough to return to the wild.

    These sanctuaries provide a way to teach our children about elephants without the circus experience.
