Tyke’s Last Performance
Twenty years ago, Tyke’s final circus appearance ended in death, injuries, and a hail of bullets. Circuses are still driving animals to the brink. Please, don’t attend circuses that use animals. Learn more.
Okha’s handler retired two other elephants, but she was left behind—lonely, chained, and abused for “entertainment.” YOU can help her reach safety.
She was crushed to death in front of her family. This incident and others around the world expose the sordid reality of exploiting animals for tourism.
Elephants like Viola don’t perform in circuses because they want to—they perform because they’re afraid of what will happen if they don’t.
Do you want to help Viola in person? Please join local PETA supporters at local demonstrations near you to help free Viola the elephant.
