  • That animals still are in circuses 2012 amazes me since it should be known by now they act on fear by hard brutal training. Sick indeed.

  • The Human race is twisted and evil. 

  • Thumbs up if the Cirque de Sole should be the only circus in America.

  • i wish they were all dead

  • i became vegeterian last year after i realized we just kill animals without a thought in the world.then i was forced to eat meat cos i fainted but i started a campaign on facebook called AAC(Against Animal Cruelty) and i am trying to start a website to get it THROUGH to THICK STUPID PEOPLE that if they buy tickets to circus' they are supporting cruelty to animals.Plz support my campaign!!!=¬D

  • @lolsite123 why did you faint? i agree that we need our iron from meat, but you shouldn't have fainted unless you were completely restricting yourself from all sources of iron.

  • Thank you for posting this video, it's very important for people to understand this-animal cruelty in circus entertainments.

  • i want to kill those guys who did that to that lion at the end

  • sorry for the profanity but these people should FUCKING DIE!!!

  • this commentator is confusing mutual respect and fear.

  • i never liked animal circuses cuz i know that they are crul and this just proves it :'(

  • Most need to stop f* complaining because most of you "torture and kill" animals via meat you buy, if you are too ignorant to know where it comes from. Look at some videos! Most feeling 'bad' are not too lazy to donate or spend an extra buck! Look in the mirror!

  • strangely, this music reminds me of going to six flags new england on the last operating day of 2009. (not the day this was uploaded). it was november 1. it made me imagine all the rides closed down and leaving the park area. btw, sfne is in no way comparing to this cruelty. the animals do not deserve this. they shouldn't even have been in the circus in the first place. sfne is only comparing to the music for me.

  • these circus people just care about being rich... so mean

  • I have never been to an animal circus before as i knew this would happen! :( May all the animals live freely!

  • I don't agree with using animals for circuses at all, but they say that the animals are sold after they're no use to the circus to zoos, pet owners, and research labs and that these options are not better. I don't think a research lab would be an improvement but there ARE responsible exotic pet owners and some good zoos out there. What other option is there for the animals? They can't be set free into the wild as they would die!

  • FUCK THE ANIAML AND CIRCUS INDUSTRIES

  • I am never going to an animal circus. The only circuses i'm going to are the ones with no animals!

  • @THEAWESOMETREX3 yes! me too!

  • dont wrry dont wrry guys we are all goin to die one day, then we ll see wat punishment these ppl will get in the hell...

  • How could a man do this?

    This video brought tears to my eyes!

    No words could explain my anger and hate against these people.

  • @atticbasementattic are you?

  • Why hasn't this been banned yet? The US can be a model for the rest of the world again by banning this circus cruelty. That's one of the many, many steps we need to take... Lets get our hands out of foreign affairs for once too.

  • @Marasma101 then we would be a model for destroying democracy where people have rights to admire and love their pets no matter how exotic they are. or the ability to bond with nature.

  • @knombo are you retarded?

  • This cruelty on the name of entertainment should stop. We dont go to these kind of circuses because we cant enjoy by suffering of any creature.

  • Stop this cruelty for money. I never go to circuses neither I take my kids to because we dont enjoy the suffering of any creature.

  • This made me cry so much....

  • At 0:56, what do you mean "are shot"?

  • I hope someday a prez sees this and outlaws animal circuses i am really pissed right now

  • F-U-C-K U CIRCUZ BASTARDS

    I LOVE ANIMALS

    ONE DAY I WILL SAVE ALL OF THE CIRCUZ ANIMAL

  • i shared this video on facebook. i hope all of the animal trainers should go to hell. it should be illegal to abuse animals. if anyone knows the name of the song in the video? if i ever have kids, i will never mention anything about circuses so that they'll want to go and support the abusive for these wonderful creatures. instead of using real animals, they should use animatronics & send them back to their natural habitats. i know i've said many off-track things in this comment, but...

  • This shouldn't be called circus cruelty its should be called CRULE CRUEL CRUEL CRUEL ON TOP OF EVEN MORE CRUEL.

  • What song is this?

  • I never enjoyed circuses featuring animals, even when I was little, which my parents thought was strange because I love animals above everything else. They asked me why and I said that "the elephant was crying."

    Kids are more reseptive to the emotions of others, especially animals, but since adults usually respond with something that makes the kids feel dumb, they stop taking it all in and ignore it.

  • The circus is just pathetic.

  • Comment removed

  • :o  Dx ok im at 0:15 right now i haven't finished the video but im already crying because of the quote... >.< :((( ahawaahh :( poor kitties... :(( x'(

  • and why do people still want to go to the circus to be entertained?

  • I've seen on TV, that elephants when they are young, in a wooden cage to be stopped, and were beaten, kicked, and that they get called on, their minds to break .. Just so you get an elephant tame..

    Ehm, I'm not sure it is spelled correctly in English, because I'm Dutch ;o

  • Comment removed

  • @Ebonylover220 is it great to be BEATEN everyday just to be adored by kids? is it GREAT to be living in a space where you can BARELY walk in? YOU are so ignorant!!!

  • @Ebonylover220 Hahahaha 3. Yeah, where's you evidence buddy. You cite no evidence or pictures to support your claim so shut the fuck up with your lunacy.

  • @Ebonylover220 Not only that. Think of the conditioning required to train these animals into performing this stuff. It must be INTENSE. That's just being rational, try it out for once.

  • Ever since I went to a circus for the very first time I never wanted to go to one ever again it's sad what they do to the animals when I went to my first circus I saw one of the elephants with it's ear torn and it looked to skinny I told my mom even thought the tricke were cool I don't ever want to see another circus if it means watching animals being abused

  • Poor animals, but stopping animal cruelty is not the the first thing on my list of taking care of things i would worry about humans being abusive to children or focus on feeding people who are about to starve to death in 3rd world countries

  • this is why i never go to the circus NEVER in my life! i have because of this these animals are ment to be in the wild thats where they were born they were not born and created 2 be in is dumb shows and be fear with this why dont ppl c that! it gets me ANGRY!!

  • זה אכזרי ברמות קשות.

  • why should animals have to live in fear..... this world is so fucked up it is horrible thank you to every body who is trying 2 do some thing 2 stop animal cruelty

  • @snipertravis22 open your eyes, the world is run by fear, natural selection that humans have wrapped in the illusion of structure and society.

  • I'ma watch an animal circus tomorrow,searched for animal circus and I saw this,mhmm....I now feel like a bad guy,thanks....

  • so is this all true

  • @silverbrumby16 its very true and very sad. When these animals perform they don't get treats or praise the only reward they get is not getting punished. Many circus workers claim the bullhook is not used for hitting and hurting animals, but if that is the case then why is it made of metal and why does it have a hook at the end?

  • May god guide us to the right path.

    Also people ask "If there is A god why doesn't he stop this crime"

    God can put in the wrong path who He wills and put in the straight path who he wills, but we are free to make our own choice untell we get judged.

    After All we can be perfect but what is the point of Heaven or hell?

    Make your choice, pay the price.

    Peace >^^<

    Change your hearts!

  • @oOoOIslamOoOo I agree.

  • @oOoOIslamOoOo Unfortunately, the world needs conflict.

  • @SinHarvester You think?

    Look at Japan.

    America.

    And Iran.

    It's sad

  • dave455ify ya maybe your right

  • @oOoOIslamOoOo but god's historical bullshit

  • 90% Of animals get abused, hit and forced out there.

    There are people to save only 10% of this abuse.

    Like i said Animals can't call, they stay there crying quiet listening to the abuse!

    Hey we can make videos and so many groups or workers to stop this.

    Can we stop? Yes. But we can only make the change ourself.

    It is said, "There is one lump of flesh in your body, if that lump of flesh turns bad (Or other wise) your whole body is bad, this lump of flesh is your heart it is your heart!"

  • Animals Are not dolls, Games and prices.

    why you hit your cat,dog (Any pet you have) Out of anger because it's not listening to you?

    Now can i come along hiting you when you just made a mistake in one word because you couldn't spell it? Or understand it? And you need help?

    Oh no i couldn't do such a thing you would call the police on me.

    Can animals do that?

    Can they call?

    And you know they can't so you think you have nothing to lose?

    God is watching you just wait tell your grief will come.

  • This world is like hell now!

    Do you not relise how hot the weather is and how many fires happen each day in this world?

    God has not made his creation (Animals) NOT for your devil needs of money, he has made them

    for you to take care of them and feed them, then they will return to you with love.

    Stop watching these shows, going to these places and buying pets stay away from Animal abuse!

    You people claim you love your animals?

    Do you know what you are doing to them even in a tiny way?

  • See cirque du sole, amazing, excuse my spelling. I know your all english magors

  • I didnt know there were circuses with that many animas in them

  • When you say instead of put in retirement or whatever, they are sold as exotic pets.. Surely that's better than this? The MAJORITY of people that would buy such exotics have facilities to keep them, especially in the US where there are strict laws.

  • I've never gone to a Circus befor, and I never gonna go there either. It's so cruel. Thanks for posting this video. I learned a lot. Are every circus with animals like this? Are there any animal friendly circus?

  • how can people be so cold?

  • im never going to a circus with a single animal ever again

  • y dont all the animals gang up and kill all of them

  • I know they should stop doing what they're doing.. but if they keep doing what they are doing they should keep in mind that at the end of the day God is gonna make them suffer just as much or maybe even more than the animals did.! #Stopanimalcruelty

  • Because of circus their are still some kinda animals on this planet... Most get killed for money and you all know that!! also killing them for fun...... don,t blame circus it,s you who say nothing about cruelty on pets...use brains if you have them..

  • I hate circus's that have abused animals with them. :(

  • i prefer artistic circises, consisting of hard-working acrobats. like cirque du soleil - breathtaking without any animals suffering

  • SCREW THE CIRCUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I will always try and prevent other people to go to the circus with abused animals :(.

  • I will never look at the circus the same way again.

    The "trainers" need to have done to them what they do to the animals.

    I'm not fond of elephants and this bothers the shit outta me.

  • In this age of non stop entertainment, Internet, television,computer,playstatio­ns,xbox why the heck do we need animal circus?

  • Omg! Ive always LOVED animal circuses! But this video changes EVERYTHING! And yes' ive seen scars and bruises on the animals hundreds of times. But i thought it was just because the animals had an accident and fell or something.

    Damn circus people! And ive been behind the stage b4. The cages were small, but the animals seem happy enough. And one of the tigers were weeping to me b4 also. there wasno food in its cage, and the cage was filled with flies.

    So its official.

    I HATE ANIMAL CIRCUSES!!!!

  • @knombo the animals get wipted because that is how the train them they do bad mean things

  • And This is why The Sigfried and Roy tiger attacked. The poor thing had had enough of his suffering and wanted to be rid of his tormentor. In my opinion, They should leave exotic animals alone and let them live in peice. Since humans came to earth, all we've done is take and never give back. We've taken graceful creatures (Tigers, Elephants ECT) and tortured them for entertainment. They jump through flaming hoops, and we NEVER give them the love they deserve.

  • Compassion for animals is intimately connected with goodness of character; and it may be confidently asserted that he who is cruel to animals cannot be a good man.

    --Arthur Schopenhauer

  • boycott the circus! no exotic animal should be caged and forced to perform. No exotic animal circus is good. Dogs and ponies at circuses seem to be treated well because they don't require a lot of care. Elephants and big exotic cats do NOT EVER belong at the circus. No exceptions. Just like Tony the Tiger does NOT belong at that truck stop in the southern USA. It's unnatural and horrible for the animal. How would YOU like to be a slave for no payoff?

  • Boycott all animal circuses! they do not make enough $ for vet care and proper treatment (exercise, training, food, bedding). Elephants can contract Tuberculosis, herpes, arthritis and other horrible conditions and instead of vet treatment, they just languish. How would YOU like to go untreated for decades with arthritis? Boycott all animal circuses otherwise you contribute to cruelty. Circuses are expensive to run, they have to pay employees etc.  Animals suffer.

  • Freedom for the animals!!!

  • Son of a bitch...

  • I hate animal cruelty and that shit, you know whoever is cruel to an animal i'd kick the shit into but... this vid is a load of bollocks, there wasn't a single fact in this vid it was all emotive language and pictures made to stimulate the brain to donate to the cause, well i'm too smart for that shit, fuck you propaganda.

  • I never even knew Circus' still existed :S

  • I hope this enlightens people, so sad!

  • This cruelty is horrible! I never knew circuses were that bad!

  • @kittyninja123 It's just a dramatization, you know there are bigger problems in the world. Animal Cruelty should be on the things to do last list. Right after Education, World hunger and Drug Laws.

  • @SinHarvester i think education and all that is important, but animal cruelty shouldn't be on the things to do last list. and its not a dramatization. wow u hate animals

  • What's a roadside zoo, sorry I've just lived in a city my entire life and know nothing outside of it

  • raider sent me here

  • i have a fear of circuses its a strange fear but they just creep me out

  • I'm putting like on this video cause I like animal cruelty. Besides these animals would have it worse in the wild. Jesus christ you people are fucking stupid.

  • @SinHarvester I hope you get killed slowly and feel the pain that the circus animals do.

  • @TheMadiTv As appose to being in the wild and killed violently by another animal. I don't see the big difference.

  • @SinHarvester

    go kill yourself

  • @MrEvol94 Is that all you got huh? All the arguments in the world and you had nothing but "Go kill yourself". You're quite the poet.

  • @SinHarvester

    I can say the same thing about the comment I respnded to

  • @MrEvol94 No you couldn't. All I'm saying is animals are not people, if the meteorite is gonna hit the earth who the fuck do you think is gonna save us? Elephants? Dogs? Ponies? None of that shit. It's all Man. And If some animals don't like us pushing them around they can hurry up and evolve a fucking brain that preform basic math and motor functions. But before then they can either get on stage or get in my fucking mouth.

  • @SinHarvester Your trying to hard, just stop

  • @Brainyy297 Nah, I wouldn't say so. A Paragraph of text isn't really trying to hard at anything. That's more like a sad attempt.

  • @SinHarvester

    So you think we "humans" who are a species that aren't doing anything more than destroying our planet, has the right to torture animals? our earth will be destroyed before we'll get hit by a metroite due to our emissions of carbon dioxide, since you over weight americans can't go anywhere without your fucking car.

  • @MrEvol94 First of all, idiot. I'm not American. Second of all I've never owned a car. If I want to get from point A to B. I walk. Your whole argument is pretty much flawed.

  • @SinHarvester

    Funny how you ignored the whole point of my comment and jumped to the last words of it xD

    I assumed that you were american since 9/10 on this website are that I don't want to waste my time on your channel to look it up.

  • @MrEvol94 Cows produce more methane gas per year then humans. All they do is eat, shit, fart and sleep.

    sure We're not exactly doing our part but it's still a whole lot better then anything any animal is doing.

  • @SinHarvester

    You do realize that we are responsible for the breeding of cows and their food etc?

    It's our fault not theirs, since it wouldn't be so many cows and they wouldn't eat as much food if they were free.

    * "better than any animal"? we are responsible for the whole thing and many people won't care about this problem untill something really bad happens, you're ignorant if you blame animals.

  • @MrEvol94 I'm not blaming animals, i'm just saying they are doing about as much good if not less then we are.

  • @SinHarvester

    Animals are innocent compared to us.

    * Our digging after fossil fuels, emissions of carbon dioxide, nuclear plant explosions, eutrophication etc is unbeatable.

  • @MrEvol94 I've never believed in innocence. If you can breath, walk and do actions either verbal or physical. You're just as much to blame as everyone else. If animals cared enough they would have evolved and done something about us. if you combined the population of the all the animals on the earth including insects (anything that isn't human) and they all revolted, we'd be fucking screwed.

  • @SinHarvester

    You do realize that evoultion takes millions to billions of years?

    We are the most cruel thing on this planet.

    Source: Wars (Vietnam war, WW2 etc) , experiments on animals, a big part of our meat industry, circuses etc.

  • @MrEvol94 Not that this all makes any difference, Life is pointless anyway. We live and we die then we rot in the ground. Even if I am wrong about who is innocent and who isn't. I guess ultimately we all suck. Every last single one of us. Even if the planet were to blow up tomorrow it wouldn't make any difference in the long run.

    Because there is no long run and life was just a cosmic accident anyway.

  • @SinHarvester

    You sound very depressed... enjoy life and respect our magnificent creatures ;)

  • @MrEvol94 I am not depressed, Pissed off at how our existence is the most boring thing ever. The only good thing that we invented was the virtual world. I'd much rather enjoy that then what other shit life has to offer. Shitty Music, Shitty People, loud ignorant idiots or people that are just too fucking happy. I don't see what is there to be happy about? Our society sucks and everything we touch turns to ashes. Hell even the things we create that were once great are now just crap. Like Music.

  • @SinHarvester

    That comment was nothing more than your opinion.

    (to get less "pissed off") You can for example:

    *Find some activity or something that you like outside the virtual world.

    * go to a psychologist.

    * Get a girlfriend (if you don't have one).

    * + A LOT of other things.

  • @MrEvol94 What else is there to do outside other then sports? I don't even like sports. Or hanging out with people...or being outside. The light is annoying. As for girlfriend. Got one of those. It doesn't help. I've never been happy with a girlfriend. Psychologists are quacks and don't know fuck all about anything. Nothing on this planet is worth anything. Like I said, the only good thing is the Virtual World. Video games and shit..and smoking the ganja I guess. What else is there?

  • @SinHarvester I don't want a family, i sure as hell don't want kids. I don't wanna hang out with the family I have or my girlfriends family. Honestly if it isn't electronic I'm not interested.

  • Yay, Animal Cruelty is funny.

  • @SinHarvester ANIMAL HATER!!!!! i hate u back

  • @kittyninja80 It is a dramatization, I mean this is not how it works with all circus animals. Cruelty can be found anywhere. I mean humans have been torturing each other for centuries. Why single out one form of cruelty, and besides if they aren't tortured by humans they are subjected to there own natural habitat. I mean It's not really an excuse for intelligent people who treat animals like shit, that being said, it takes a long time to change the nature of any creature.

  • omg!

    I took a photo with a life tiger before- they had a whip=e to whip to whip him with

  • well there not whipped the whip goes on the ground but i think they should treat them better tho but we cant do anything :( but they should treat them better

  • @JordaaaaanHD

    It doesn't matter if you like or dislike the video, you're still against this cruelty.

    

  • this is a load of crap. PETA can suck my dick

  • there should be mkore stricter laws to the cruelty of animals and the standard of their living these beautiful animals do not chose to live like this! The monster who have these animals for greed and entertainment should be ashamed! There needs to be more strict laws!

  • I almost cried as soon as you showed the first quote in this video...

    

  • i fucking hope one of those tigers maules the fuck out of one of them humans! filthy shits, its almost as bad as fucking concentration camps!!

  • @AlpineSwift12 It IS a concentration camp. How would you like to be trapped without socialization, proper food, proper vet care, proper mental stimulation? How would you like to be beaten every day? How would you like to be a slave and forced to perform with arthritis and whatever else you catch in the circus (TB and herpes are found in elephants all the time). Of course you wouldn't like any of that so that's why boycotting is the only way to end this crap.

  • @xeniakennedy I just said that

  • This Breaks My heart To See This </3

  • @iRaider2k11i fun fact: its not gunna stop

  • @FrankieTheoret It just has in the UK, Bobby Roberts has gave his elephant too a safari park after being put under pressure . It just goes to show that we can make a difference and we will!

  • i hope one day a tiger or elephant in the circus realizes they are bigger than the evil little twisted man and tred on him or sumthin, see how he takes pain.

  • Would we starve and beat a child to do well in school? play the piano? Be perfect? If not then why are we doing it to these animals? would you realy beat a child with a club or hook? do you realy think that animals cant feal pain? that the only way to teach them is with fear and pain? I think if you said yes to any of these you are a truely disgusting person.

  • you can obviously tell tigers or whatever big cat really doesn't like it considering their always lunging and roaring

  • they should get every circus member and burn them all

  • i always wanted to go to the circus but now i dont know

  • i m gonna cry by seeing their innocent faces......we r so cruel .we r just ruining their lives to amuse and to earn money......alas!!!!!!!!!!

  • Geez :/ Should i like or dislike this video?

  • @NonEducatedHD I agree with you. I don't know if "like" means you think they shouldn't train animals for cicus acts or if "like" means you like the fact that animals are getting beaten up.

  • @NonEducatedHD Like because it's supporting to go against this act.

  • i only go to circuses without animals... one circus ik didnt beat their animals

    i got to ride the elephant and i checked for scars or anything that showed abuse (and i checked this animal up and down) she was just a happy elephant btw the showe had one elephant one monkey and i think a lion... plus my friends dad worked for that circus as an animal trainor and never did i see him or any other trainor beat one of the animals... that circus is long gone now

  • If i was a lion or tiger or circus zoo, id run up, grab the whip, and make them perform for ME!

  • I am the 1000th person who shared this on Facebook. And I am proud of that because ANIMALS ARE INNONCENT ! LET US BE THEIR VOICE AND SUPPORT EVERY MATERIAL AGAINST ANIMAL CRUELTY !

  • I went to a circus when i knew that they abuse them and i tell you what i did >:3

    I shouted "You assholes GET OFF THE STAGE WHY DONT YOU JUST USE THE BULLHOOK LIKE ALWAYS" the people were just all like *gasp* and i was all like >.> <.<

  • :( so sad bad people must die

  • :( so sad bad ppl

  • I feel completely drained after watching this. How can mankind find entertainment out of inflicting fear on those poor helpless creatures? What would you do if you were whipped 'till you jump through a ring of burning fire? What was man thinking when he extracted those animals from their lush and large homes to put them in enclosers the size of match boxes. These animals are meant to be free! Going to a circus with animal acts is an act of hatred.

  • I am near tears! I didn't know any of this! I am going to email it to everyone I know right now.

  • I never understood people that like the circus. Bunch of freaks and scary clowns performing. Do u think these animals actually like performing in front of huge crowds? No

  • Comment removed

  • Circ du soleil , no animals , entertaiment:)

  • fuck the circus! and all evil fucked up people!

  • 0:40 that is how i am treated at home, im not lying at all

  • I'm almost in tears.. I hope they all get killed one day.. I'd rather have the animals take over the world than humans.. because animals were here first... let them live.. let them have the life theire suppose to have.. God didn't sent us animals so we could dress them, make them stand on balls, jump through fire , slash them and so on..

    ANIMALS SHOULDN'T BE OUR SLAVES !

  • I SWEAR THAT ALL ANIMALS WILL GO TO HEAVEN................amen.yea­ so wat im a muslim BUT I LOVE ANIMALS TOO U KNOW?WHOOPS CAps lock is on.u should send a message to the nat geo,animal planet and link ths vid to them......Ii can tiell u somthin.......................­....................DONT BE SCARED!!!

  • I SWEAR THAT ALL ANIMALS WILL GO TO HEAVEN................amen.yea so wat im a muslim  BUT I LOVE ANIMALS TOO U KNOW?WHOOPS CAps lock is on.

  • Who are the stupid 7 motherfuckers who are about to be killed by me?

  • Dont you just love when this animals atack their owners...?

  • What animal is that on 2:38?

  • I remember as a child, having the chance to ride a camel in the circus. I was 7, but instead of taking the ride I argued with the circus man near by. Even then I knew it was cruel, so I told other kids about how mean they were. I definately pissed that good-for-nothing bastard off. Those people are deserving of getting the same treatment that their performing animals get!

  • Next time there a curcis in town im making a pootion to stop this and a riot with my cousion and my bff who loves animals
