Do you believe using wild animals in circuses is cruel? The results are in.

For some, the circus brings family fun. For others, keeping wild animals confined and making them perform raises concerns about their wellbeing. Should wild animals have a place in the circus ring?
“Yes. Wild animals were never meant to perform in circuses. I believe these environments restrict their freedom and put both animals and people at risk. God created them to live in their natural habitats.”

“No. We should not assume cruelty without evidence. If animals are healthy, loved and properly cared for, why condemn the circus? We also need to consider how this differs from keeping animals in zoos, aquariums and fenced wildlife parks.”
