This campaign goal, is to end animal use in circuses a positive process by actively encouraging animal-free circuses to perform in your area instead, or at the same time. By highlighting the fact that these cruelty free circuses are much more entertaining and offer a wholesome form of entertainment which doesn’t involve animal exploitation, you’ll be changing the balance of power against the animal abusers. Ocean Blue Project is a local nonprofit that protects wildlife and animals alike. OBP would like to stop animal abuse in Benton County. Together we can every step we can take towards blocking circuses from performing is a step closer to the ultimate victory for the animals involved. I'm seeking 1,800 signatures that will show the State, County, and the City of Corvallis the facts that we have the power to take a stand against the animal abusers and Benton County should not allow this to take place.

I am spending my days reaching out to local officials to ensure they see exactly how many people in our community are calling for change. It is clear that this conversation is finally reaching the right ears because of your willingness to put your name behind this cause.

I am honestly overwhelmed by how quickly this has taken off. This momentum belongs entirely to the people who took the time to look at this and decide it was worth their attention.

I live in Corvallis, OR, and I do not want animal circuses allowed in our county. There are many avenues for entertainment in Benton County, and an event at the expense of animal well-being does not need to be one of them.

Treat these animal with respect. No one wants to see this abuse. I saw this circus several years ago and I was disgusted.

I am shocked that an animal circus is coming to Corvallis. I thought we were beyond this sort of thing. Get some bendy, daring people to jump through flaming hoops -- at least they get paid!

Very surprised to know BC Fairground mgr & BC Commissioners are unaware that circus animal performers are treated miserably. I'll email them.

Animal-free circuses need to happen now. Through humans accounts we know how much violence is used to "tame" exotics---we need to do better.

Humans are wonderful in circus's. The best part of human circus's is they CHOOSE to be in the circus. The other best part is for certain they are not beaten, isolated, deprived of food and water or tortured to perform. Please ban all animals from circus Thank you for doing the right thing
