Each year thousands of animals are hauled over great distances for the purpose of entertainment. They are not cared for and don't get the medical attention they need.  In 2004, a lion traveling with the Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey Circus died of dehydration in the Mojave desert.The circus has also been cited by the Department of Agriculture numerous times with failure to comply with the Animal Welfare Act.  The madness has to end!  Sign this petition to boycott the Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey Circus until they stop ALL animal explotation
