Massachusetts joined a host of other states by banning circuses and other traveling acts from cruelly exploiting elephants, big cats, primates, giraffes, and bears. PETA supporters in the state repeatedly showed up big by urging their elected officials to pass this law, which takes effect on January 1, 2025. Join us in keeping the momentum going by asking Congress to support the Captive Primate Safety Act.

“Almost all of us grew up eating meat, wearing leather, and going to circuses and zoos. We never considered the impact of these actions on the animals involved. For whatever reason, you are now asking the question: Why should animals have rights?”
— Ingrid Newkirk, PETA Founder and co-author of Animalkind
