Save Jumbo
The situation
For 30 years, his life has been a living hell.
Its basic needs are denied from start to finish.
For 30 years, life has been hell for Jumbo the hippopotamus.
He who should be living and communicating with his herd at all times, surrounded by a dozen females, is locked up, desperately alone, in a truck.
He who should spend his days in the water, immersing himself for long periods, whose whole body is made for this semi-aquatic lifestyle, has to put up with continuous gravity and make do with water sprinkled on him from a hose.
He who could run up to 30km/h, can only trample a few meters during the 30 minutes it takes to get him out of the truck and show him off to the public.
He should be grazing on up to 68kg of food at night, but is fed hay and horse cereals during the day.
Jumbo’s existence is nothing like that of a hippopotamus. His basic needs are denied from start to finish.
For his sake, we the undersigned support One Voice’s demand that he be released from the circus holding him and placed in a sanctuary where his physiological and behavioral needs will be respected.
