I think circuses should use only dogs and horses if they want to use animals. These animals are completely domesticated and can be trained with no cruelty. And they can do more impressive tricks than wild animals, so the only drawback is that they're more common. If people want to see rare animals they can go to a zoo.

- mrob 10y agoThe average working dog or working horse has a better life than the average wild animal or food animal, and very few people are campaigning for the elimination of wild and food animals. Working animals are specifically bred to enjoy working with humans, and some breeds have a temperament that can tolerate the chaotic environment of a circus. Working for a circus is no worse than working as a police dog or police horse.
