I won't get into an argument here; just don't comment again on any of my photos unless you have a question for me or a valuable and informed comment to make.

There is friendly and respectful disagreement [over the use of animals in circuses, for example], there are light-hearted and amusing comments, and then there is damn rudeness.
I have seen apparently contented and well stimulated animals in circuses, and keep an open mind on the subject; the occasional circus thread is inteteresting from the animal behaviour and husbandry angles; there is always something to learn.
Lions are dangerous; if you spend time with them, evetually they or you will mis-read each other, and somebody gets hurt. The same could be said of many domestic animals.
Don't tell me this is another circus debate! For the love of this forum @BillyT please do not start yet another pointless debate about circus husbandry and enrichment as there are a few major thread discussions on this debate.
However, I think you cannot judge a circus if you have not been there. Just because there are 3 lions standing on podiums does not mean you can judge the animal husbandry of the entire circuis or at all by this image and I would imagine that these animals would get a more enriched and stimulated life than in a zoo.
All i'm saying is don't judge a book by it's cover.
why do you assume i am 12-15?
Didnt your mother ever tell you never to assume? Just ask geoffrey lennon (assumption is the mother of all fk ups)
And whats my age got to do with anything!? you seem to be like alot of members here, so quick to patronize the younger members of this group, yet your little ****** comments bring nothing to the argument? except your want to argue with a 12-15 yo Im no expert but i know that a wild animal
doesnt belong on the road for days on end in cramped conditions unable to settle into its surroundings.
I know a wild animal doesnt belong in a enviroment that consists of 100s of cheering and clapping people flashing lights ect ect.....!
I know a wild animal doesnt need to be made to do things it doesnt want to do by a bully with a whip
I know nearly 80% of lions have been rescued from these places including last year the biggest rescue of over 30 lions from romania for being ill treated
I know there are many lion attacks at circuses, IN MY EYES NOT ENOUGH THO....!
