Great News!!! Now, I just have to wonder what are they going to do with these animals??? Hopefully, let them live the rest of their lives out on a peaceful, caring and protected environment. No more harm must be done to them, and I do agree with the sentence in the article, see how these people would like to be living in what we would call a bathroom!!! Tight quarters etc. Hope other Countries follow a great example. THANKS FOR A GREAT STORY TOM!!!

The greatness of a nation and it's moral progres can be judged by the way it's animals are treated.

That's awesome. Animals shouldn't be used for profit and entertainment.

Friday August 7, 2009, 8:53 pm
That is the best news I have heard all year! Right after I was outraged to see Barnum and Baily's Circus Announcements coming to Oakland California, with a picture of a growling Tiger and a dancing Elephant on my TV. Last year I had to stop my daughter from taking my 4-year old grand daughter to this shameful spectacle. Luckily some people from the Humane Society had quickly organized a picket line and my son-in law, her husband is a union man. I enlisted his help to stop her from crossing a picket line! She has since come to her senses and agrees with me to teach the little one that animals belong in the wild, not in a circus tent.

It's probably still a no win for the animals. They are still "circus" animals and will be moved to wherever the animal using circus is still allowed. Circuses are by their very nature transient so don't expect many animals liberated. The Bolivian ban represents just one less market to ply the circus act in. However it is still encouraging to see that not all humans on the planet are amused by seeing animals in tortured, imprisoned or forced to perform in perpetual slavery.
