Help End Traveling Show Misery!

Dear Humanitarian:

Lions and tigers and bears...do not belong on the road! It is impossible for circuses and other traveling exhibitors to meet the very complex needs of wild and exotic animals. Recognizing the many problems these operations present, Rep. Jim Moran (D-VA) has introduced H.R. 3359, the Traveling Exotic Animal Protection Act, to put an end to this misery.

WHAT YOU CAN DO:

Powerful commercial interests are working against this legislation. Members of Congress must hear from their constituents who think it is time for society to stop subjecting animals to cruelty for our entertainment.

You can send your Representative an email on the issue through the Compassion Index by clicking here.

Thank you for helping to put an end to the suffering that the animals in these traveling acts endure!

Sincerely,

Chris Heyde
Deputy Director, Government and Legal Affairs
