** WOW what a day!
------------------------------------------------------------
Hello John,
YOU did it!! After all these years of hard campaigning, wild animal circuses are BANNED in England.
This ban came into effect TODAY. From now on, wild animals will no longer be able to be used in travelling circuses in England. ([link removed])
This is all thanks to your hard work and unwavering dedication to animals. All of the times you have spoken out against this cruelty, whether it be standing outside a circus with placards, signing a petition, sharing information online, sending a donation, lobbying your MP.... all of this has resulted in securing this amazing victory for animals.

It was only a few years ago that we still saw lions and tigers being carted around to entertain crowds. Within the last ten years elephants were being forced to perform tricks in the circus ring. Well now, thanks to you, this will never happen again.
But not all animals are safe from being exploited for 'entertainment.
‘Domestic’ animals like horses and dogs will not be protected from the circus ring as they are not covered by this ban. That is despite these animals suffering in the circus just as wild animals do, spending their lives living in cramped, temporary accommodation. Being forced to perform degrading tricks for loud audiences.
And animals are still being exploited in ‘mobile zoos’ and the TV and film industry, where animals are used as props for entertainment.
So, on this day of amazing news, I am asking if you can take action for these animals too by making a donation. ([link removed])
DONATE TO HELP EVEN MORE ANIMALS ([link removed])
I know it may feel like a long way off until we see ALL animals free from the entertainment industries, but LOOK at what you have achieved! Look at the difference we can make to animals’ lives, when we campaign side by side.
After more than 60 years of campaigning, we are so delighted to see this finally becoming real! And so grateful for all of the support you have given to organisations like us, and others, in this fight.
I hope you feel proud that this victory and this day has finally come. And feel inspired to continue the fight for animal liberation.
Thank you so much!
For the animals,
Nicola O'Brien
Campaigns Director
P.S. Wild animals are finally free of the big top in circuses in England! Thank you so much for everything you have done to make this happen! Let's move forward with new energy and fight on for the other animals who still urgently need our help! ([link removed]) Thank you.
