No Elephants for Garden Bros. Circus in Kentucky

Garden Bros. Circus was planning to take its cruel elephant act to The Corbin Arena in Kentucky, despite a local ordinance prohibiting the possession of wild animals for display or exhibition purposes. After PETA alerted the Kentucky Department of Fish & Wildlife Resources to the planned performance, the agency pledged to inform both the venue and the circus that they would be barred from bringing elephants into the state. Now, help elephants Betty and Bo, who are suffering with Garden Bros., by urging it to go animal-free.

— Ingrid Newkirk, PETA Founder and co-author of Animalkind
