***WATCH THIS HSUS VIDEO ON HAWTHORN ELEPHANTS*** Bring back the Captive Elephant Accident Prevention Act of 1999 Read eye witness testimony from a former circus worker A word about Delhi Congratulations Delhi - Confiscated by the USDA and now home at the Elephant Sanctuary in Tennessee! USDA Settles by Rescuing 16 Circus Elephants WRITE YOUR REP AND CHANGE THE LAW Help Save Maggie URGE SIEGFRIED & ROY TO RETIRE ANIMALS These pages have been designed to push the campaign of banning the use of animals in circuses into the next phase. These pages offer tips on very aggressive letter writing to US Senators, the USDA and legislative reps on the prohibition of elephants and other exotic and domestic animals in circuses. These tips were compiled by a handful of individuals' creative ideas to become more aggressive. The hope is that the ideas here will trigger re-motivation and creative ideas in other individuals. It is time to
strengthen our demands and question the inadequate punishments of those
that abuse circus animals.
Writing letters is a great start. But there is so much more you can do. For example, you can send photos with your letters and file complaints with humane law enforcement agencies and health departments in the localities in which these animals are kept. You can also make appointments to speak to students and other large groups as well as educate your family, friends and co-workers. You can also send news releases to the media. Please let the USDA and legislatures keep
hearing from you. Write them every week if possible, or at least once a month. Please be
sure and remind them every time you write, that you are a taxpayer and a
registered voter. If you are not currently registered to vote, please do so.

It is reported that circus animals have lived abusive,
captive, pathetic
existing lives for two centuries now.
Ever since Walt Disney and his team made
the animated feature film
"DUMBO" in 1941, awareness about the abuse
these animals endure has grown.
However,
it still has not been banned in the United States. Email
