Act now to stop EU from overturning Austrian circus ban
Feb 9, 2006

Focus:Animal Welfare
Action Request:Petition
Location:Austria
Austria was the first country in the European Union to ban wild animals in circuses. This ban, besides saving many animals from a life of suffering, has also set a precedent that paves the way for bans all over Europe.
Regrettably, EU Commissioner Charlie McCreevy is now trying to overturn the ban in Austria.

Please sign the petition (only for European residents – select your country):

Thank you very much,
