In 2009, PETA went undercover at "the saddest show on Earth" Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus and captured Ringling workers on video as they beat and whipped elephants dozens of times in venues across the country.
PETA documented workers as they struck elephants and tigers on the head, face, ears, trunk, legs, and other parts of their bodies with bullhooks and other abusive handling tools. The unit's animal superintendant and head elephant trainer were among those who used bullhooks, fireplace pokerlike devices to hook and yank elephants by their sensitive skin.
Please tell Ringling brothers that you will never attend their circus because what they are doing is wrong and cruel.
