Soon we will hand this petition with all your signatures over to the European Commission! We’re so incredibly close to reaching the target of 1 MILLION signatures, thanks to the huge outpouring of support from citizens all across Europe! Now, we call on your support one last time: will you help us cross the finish line?

Together, we can be the voice for thousands of wild animals that still live miserable lives or have died without knowing anything other than life behind bars, condemned to traveling hundreds of kilometers to their next performance, in a permanent state of stress, anguish and fear, just so a few people can "enjoy" an outdated spectacle.

Circuses with wild animals violate animal welfare, infringe upon the ethical and respectful treatment of animals, pose a risk to public safety and form a potential route for infectious disease transmission. This must STOP now.

It is imperative that the European Union prohibits the use of wild animals in circuses. To date, our petition has obtained the support of nearly 981,300 people. We are convinced that with your help and support we will surpass 1 million signatures if we put our minds to it.

Please sign and share this petition NOW to ask the European Union to ban circuses with wild animals once and for all.

It is time for the EU to finally put an end to this cruel, dangerous and unnecessary practice. We owe it to the animals and to our future generations.

Together we can achieve this. Thank you!
