Today I was sent a link that I was not really ready for.
I had just started opening my mail for this site when the 1st one had a link to Ringling’s Baby Elephants Tied Up and Electro-Shocked by Trainers . I should have know by the title that I was in for news I did not want to read. I have heard for years about Ringling Brothers Circus animal mistreatment but, this particular article had some disturbing pictures of baby elephants being tied down until their spirit is broken. Trainers also are shown using electrical shocking devices on the babies.
These pictures were given to PETA by Sam Haddock who was an elephant handler at Ringling’s Center for Elephant Conservation (breeding and training center) in Polk City, Florida, off and on between 1997 and 2005.
It just amazes me that any of this would still go on.
If you are even thinking about going to a circus please consider what your ticket money may be supporting.
