Circus brings back animal acts

[Tobi]

It is very disappointing to hear animal shows are being brought back! That move just opens the door to further abuse in the name of entertainment. I am not happy with animal shows. I remember watching them when I was a little girl, and never liked it even then. When the acrobats came on I liked it and cheered up. People wondered why I was so miserable during the animal acts. I felt something deeply sad, that's why, but was too young to know what it was or say anything.

Cirque du Soleil are brilliant. The first time I saw one of their shows (televised) I was transfixed. I'd never seen anything like that before.
