Circus brings back animal acts

[Catherine]

This is so stupid! The Melha Shrine Circus dropped its animal acts a year ago and now they have decided to bring them back.

They were doing a good thing by retiring their animals. Why would they want to bring them back   They use dropping attendance numbers as the reason, but maybe there are other reasons for dropping numbers. Maybe the old style circuses no longer appeal to modern audiences. Certainly the popularity of animal acts is a thing of the past. People do not want to see abused animals performing tricks.
Bringing them back won't bring many of us back to the circus.
