 "Wild Animals Dont Belong Behind Bars" In order to force wild animals to perform stressful and often painful acts, trainers use metal bullhooks, whips, muzzles and electric prods. These horribly cruel training methods are commonly used in Irish circuses all over the country. This is part of ARAN’s ongoing campaign country wide to show the public that, animals in circuses have being taken from the wild at some stage in their life for a lifetime of boredom, misery, cheap tricks and cruelty. Animals in circuses are not volunteers, they are slaves, confined to their ‘beast’ wagons for some 23 hours a day with no room to exercise compared to that of their homes in the wild. Animals in circuses regardless of them being ‘born’ in the circus, still have the instincts of their fellow companions in the wild, they like to roam for miles, go hunting for food and vegetation and raise their young. ARAN will also be distributing DVD’s of an undercover investigation into circuses here in Ireland by Animal Defenders International that show’s shocking cruelty, neglect, abuse, beatings and horrid conditions. ARAN is also urging local councilors in Limerick to get behind a motion to ban the use of animals in circuses visiting Limerick city and will be sending copies of the DVD investigation to all councilors. |
