  • Filmed inside the Cow Palace, Monday September 1, 2014 - Ringling Brothers Blue Unit.
    Ringling Brothers Circus has been caught on video numerous times beating their elephants. They testified in court, that they beat the elephants. These "tricks" are unnatural and painful for elephants to perform. An elephant would never do a handstand in the wild. Its 2014 and we still have animals in severe confinement/captivity, doing ridiculous tricks as entertainment?

      @@charlymrivera7236 What a pathetic answer, honestly. Educate yourself. Go watch a documentary on what REALLY happens behind-the-scenes in these circuses. These animals are tortured with whips and electric-shock machines to get them to do these bizarre stunts. If they refuse, and cause a stampede instead, they'll get twice the punishment. They've been captivated, and deprived of their natural habitat. Look at 1:00 - Each member is holding a cane.
      Your analogy is wrong. This isn't natural. And FYI, the Ringling Brothers Circus closed because of this VERY reason. Fuck's sake, man! How are you not aware of this?!

      Oakleaf700 , the elephants seemed to be enjoying the tricks - if they were upset, they would stampede! They are clearly tame & they trust the trainers, or they would revolt, as angry elephants have done in the past. You & others like you, assume you "know" that the elephants are unhappy, but there is no sign that they are unhappy, plus they're not alone, as they have all their elephant friends with them all the time.

Its hard for people to see that since its not outwardly hitting, but the depravation of anything natural, for years and years is extreme abuse.

    This is the miserable life for Ringling Bros Circus elephants
    They are in chains, beaten, prodded with electric shock prods and bullhooked in order to do do unnecessary circus tricks.
    They suffer horrific conditions, get chained 24 hours a day and brutally tied up for training.
    Mother elephants are never allowed to see their own baby calfs, they are pulled away from their mothers. Elephants calves that deem no good are often destroyed on day 1 by shooting them or letting them dye a horrible death in a separate part of the shed. Witness saw sick and injured calfs, juveniles and adolescents abandoned to a prolonged and painful death.
    The terrified elephants are dragged onto lorries and towed in windowless containers for hours and hours. When they arrive, they are chained up swaying for hours on end.
    The elephants are deprived, beaten and malnourished for the need to do tricks. They are kept in dark cold filthy sheds with no bedding what so ever and forced to live on gravel or concrete and possibly in their own waste which is very bad for their health. When they try to escape, they are often tranquilesed, beaten and forced to walk back and they are chained up again.
    They are often starving and receive no medical treatment for illness or much food or water.
    They are only allowed water about twice a day which makes them severely dehydrated. The only enrichment they get is their own chains which is not enrichment or amusing to them at all, in fact it's very distressing, terrifying and can be lethal. They kick the side of the sheds in intense distress desperate to be free, fear and pain and sway in chains.
    They suffer in agonising pain and imense distress from the chains, there is no medication so they just have to endure the extremely difficult sad cruel ghastly obnoxiously disgusting living conditions
    Elephants who are deemed no good have no retirement, just more abuse. They are cut open whilst still alive or die agonizing deaths.
    Other elephants amwere hurled to slaughterhouses where they were jolted with electricity m, hung up side down by one leg, slashed across the throat, bled and skinned.
    Their body's are then cut up to be made into ornament, suit buttons, wedding / baptism peasants and other traditions.
    This is their very sad every day life of circus elephants. Please only visit large green sanctuaries to visit animals.
    The next time you go to an elephant circus, please remember the lives they endure
    1) Swaying in chains
    2) Living on GRAVEL or CONCRETE
    3) Giving rides and performing unnecessary circus tricks.
    This is the life they endure which is a life of abuse, frustration and life long suffering.
    The life of sanctuary elephants is
    1) 24 hour freedom
    2) Living in grass and water
    3) Recieving treats and having a wonderful life
    Visit ELEPHANT SANCTUARIES not ELEPHANT CIRCUSES.

The most unhappy looking animals I’ve seen as if they wished they’re dead. In most living creatures, the eyes are indicators of what they feel. You can see deep sadness in their eyes, elephants, liomst, tigers, monkeys. The only living creatures looking happy are the audience and the performers. This cruel industry must be stopped.

      There is no cruelty the elephants got at Ringling Brothers that remotely compares to being eaten alive by lions.

      I used to play in the live band for a Ringling circus during the summer. It paid pretty well, especially for a second rate brass player in school, but I quit after I saw an adolescent elephant be effectively tasered for running. It had so many scars around it's ankles from being chained and tied, that it almost bled from something it hadn't done in years. To anyone that says that this is natural or normal, I harbor no hate for you, but I hope that one day that you can see the damage that this does to the elephant populous and to desensitize people from these modern atrocities.

    ...if you know some facts about elephants they can’t even jump. And their forced to climb on balls and small stools for entertainment. I’m so happy that they got shut down for abusing the animals.

    I feel like they do the tricks because they don’t want to get hurt and they perform because it’s the only time they are not Brutely beaten
