Update on Circus Ban (or lack thereof)

Anne, the elephant.


Some time ago I posted about Anne the elephant who after spending a life being beaten and abused was finally able to retire from “Bobby Roberts Super Circus” in April this year.

RSPCA reports that the Crown Prosecution Service has agreed to take on the prosecution of Bobby and Moira Roberts in relation to the alleged abuse of Anne.  The court date is set for today.

Anne has now been liberated from her circus life but despite overwhelming support from the pubic and MP’s, the government have still not implemented a ban on the use of wild animals in circuses.  Instead of finding a solution, they have wasted resources on developing a licensing system that nobody wants.

If you are a UK resident please click here and contact your MP and ask them to contact Lord Taylor of Holbeach CBE, the Minister responsible at Defra to take action on this urgent matter.   

Please share this with your friends on Facebook or Twitter and ask them to take action too.

Thank you.
