A video that will melt even the coldest heart

[MistyM]

Ember you probably do not but the end of the video is heartwarming.

I am so disgusted with how circus animals are treated that I have never taken my children to a circus.
Although I understand the interest in seeing these animals up close I am very apposed to animals being held in captivity *unless* there is a good reason.
(For our mere entertainment is not a good reason)

my ex was a drummer and he got a gig as a replacement for a friend at a circus. i didnt want to go in so i stayed in the car while he played, we were parked in the back. i saw the trainer bring his elephants out to the big truck they were sentenced to after the performance. i cried when i saw how he treated them and was so affected by it to this day i HATE circuses even more than i did before.
