Please shut down this circus. When confronted about the treatment of their animals, the owners get extremely aggressive which calls into questions their behaviour towards the animals behind the scenes.Stacy Edwards (Cape Town, 2019-11-18)

Animal circuses have no educational value whatsoever. Captive animals, bred and exploited for entertainment, do not display any of the natural behaviour - how can they when they are trained (with whips) and dominated to be submissive captive performers. In addition to this, the audience sees these animals for 60 - 90 minutes, under the big top, bright lights and with cheerful music. After the show, the animals return to their tiny cages, or are loaded up into steel trailers and dragged around the country to the next performance. We are BEHIND the civilised and informed world, South Africa. Animal circuses are being banned in many different countries, cities and municipalities. For once, let's be on the RIGHT side of history?Jacqui Pirzenthal (Jeffreys Bay, 2019-11-18)

Why must animals do tricks for their daily meal? Animals used in circuses are inhumane to say the least. All circus animals should retire and no animals used in circuses anymore. I want to be entertained by human artistry and not by animal slavery!Xuan du Plessis (Pretoria, 2019-11-18)

Because a circus is no life for these poor animals, place them in a sanctuary where they can live a decent life at least. They lie when they say they don't mistreat their animals... can tou imagine teaching even a domestic cat to do tricks? The training is entirely inhumane!!! Let alone traveling in hot cages to face rowdy crowds all the time!! Shocking and viciously cruel!!!Rene Reece (Wellington , 2019-11-18)
