In one show, a sea lion was made to catch hoops around their neck and repeatedly made to ‘clap’ their arms together like human hands. In another, sea lions are made to stand on their front flippers, leap out of the water to touch a hanging ball and swim like a shark.
Last year, wild animal circuses were banned from travelling and performing across England, Scotland and Wales. But yet, zoos across the UK are STILL making animals perform circus tricks to the paying public. There are 10 zoos across Scotland, England and Wales that have sea lion shows.

This is why you and I need to keep fighting, for as long as it takes, to give animals their freedom. You have so kindly taken action before to help animals exploited in captivity. Will you make a donation today to continue this fight?
