I was thrilled to hear that Ringling Bros. plans to phase out its elephant acts. As someone who greatly cares about the welfare of animals, I urge you to stop using elephants NOW. Three years is too long to continue tearing nursing baby elephants away from their terrified and protective mothers, beating elephants with bullhooks, and forcing ailing and arthritic elephants to perform. These elephants need to be taken off the road right now. They need space to roam without shackles on their ankles, and they need care and rest to heal their ailing bodies. The nation's eye is on you after your announcement, and now is the time to make a real impact. Please end your elephant acts NOW.
