They are whipped and tortured into submission to do their stupid circus "tricks". If you think they do these tricks through positive reinforcement and that a peanut gives them enough incentive to perform some unnatural activity. Think again. For #12 on the gazelle blog who called people who care about the horrific abuse and torture of animals "nuts", let me tell you this, about 15 years ago people who went to health food stores were called health "nuts" now it has become mainstream. You are just not progressive enough to understand this yet. However, 20 years from now you just might get the denial you are in and the suffering that you are laughing at. You might be one of the people who can't call someone an "inappropriate" name because it is not politically correct. Oooh pooo hooo well we are all discriminated against in one way shape or form, but animal abuse is extremely cruel and that should not be tolerated. Why don't you sit through a video about a factory farm, or a circus "training" video and face what you are actually yapping about so flippantly. You are in denial #12 and the animals have to suffer for it. With any progressive movement mainstream always laughs and gets angry at it first before they finally wake up and smell the abuse. I hope this is the end of Ringling Brothers and all animal circuses.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18178634823492203291noreply@blogger.com
