From its very beginning, One Voice has helped municipalities confronted with the illegal occupation of circuses, providing authorities with training when having to enforce that regulations, often ignored, are respected concerning the detention of wild animals. (
See our fight's background here)
Circuses with animals are not only places of much suffering for the animals detained, but they also present a threat to the security of the public and residents. Accidents, sometimes fatal, are constant reminders of this.
In 16 years of campaigning, their number has dropped dramatically from 200 to less than half of this… One Voice praises the towns who have clearly expressed their refusal to see these organisations there, organisations who consider subservience to be entertainment! If circuses contest their refusal, One Voice will provide all legal aid necessary to townships in order to assert their rights… For fifteen years now, One Voice has been offering aid to circus performers to retrain as real circus artists. The human performances are magical and amazing expressions of liberty... The ethical circus of tomorrow is for today!
