Wild animal circuses BANNED in England!

Celebrate the good news with Animal Defenders International – the British Parliament has FINALLY banned the use of wild animals in travelling circuses in England!

The Wild Animals in Circuses (No. 2) Bill passed its Third, and final, Reading today (23 July) in the House of Lords. Proceeding to Royal Assent, and coming into effect in January 2020, the legislation comes after more than a decade of promises from successive governments and over 20 years of investigations and campaigns by ADI.

Similar legislation is already in place in Scotland, with a bill to ban wild animal acts introduced earlier this month to the Welsh Assembly. If you live in Wales, please ask your AM to support!

ADI has offered to assist with relocation of animals affected by the law.

How the once powerful British circus industry fell

25 years ago, the UK had one of the most powerful circus industries in the world, supplying thousands of animals to circuses worldwide. But as ADI hidden cameras captured what was going on behind the scenes, the public turned its back on this cruel multi-million-pound industry and the law has finally caught up.
