    A lot of people don't realize that Barnum and Bailey was not the only circus going. There are still circuses in operation, and some even still have elephants.

    They'll be back, but they'll be missed until they start performing once again.

      @Rodan The Fire Demon Saving Animals is more important than your Childhood, ignorant people like you should get 30 years in prison or something.

      @Rodan The Fire Demon LOL 😆 😂 You cant tell me that, my dad worked at a Circus when he was 20, I know so many stories of him, he was responsible for some of the setpices for one year when he worked for the Greatest Show on earth

    • @mstrmren
      @mstrmren Před 3 lety +1

      Rodan The Fire Demon No, they aren’t getting hit, but the Animals don’t Get Food or water when they do something wrong in Training, they are getting enough to live, but this is practically the only way they learn if the did. something wrong or not

    This didn't answer shit! Do they qualify for unemployment? Does the company give them a housing allowance or severance? Do they get a flight to wherever home may be (if one existed outside that train)? No one showed the human side of this show closing. I wanted to know how these performers prepared themselves for that. It's like you work and live in a hotel that closes one day. What do you do?

    It’s pretty sad how the circus gets shut down for having animals. While zoos don’t get shut down for keeping animals in cages. I mean the Circus feeds them and shit.

    • @yogirlcelery3307
      @yogirlcelery3307 Před 6 lety +1

      Actually I heard zoos are there to protect animals from people trying to hunt them into extinction, at least that's what the San Diego zoo does. I'm not sure about others

    • @thebeachrocks7829
      @thebeachrocks7829 Před 6 lety

      Beautifully Tragic This one zoo I went too keeps the aninals locked up forever. And they don’t give them food. But it got shut down.

    • @yogirlcelery3307
      @yogirlcelery3307 Před 6 lety +2

      21 Crybaby’s panicking at the disco Maybe it's just different for all zoos, I know that zoos were definitely not originally intended to be around for the wellbeing of endangered animals but I think a lot of modern zoos have the intent of trying to help at least now

      The Beachrocks thats what show performers such as Barnum and Bailey, and SeaWorld say, but PETA wont trust em and sue them.

    • @BiLdoEMcLown
      @BiLdoEMcLown Před 2 lety

      Most circus animals were treated better than the workers. Beloved pets. Family. Abused animals won't perform, after all... they'll either cower in fear or attack.

  • @BiLdoEMcLown
    @BiLdoEMcLown Před 2 lety

    Turns out, just an extended vacation. They'll be back next year in the fall.

  • @gacha.weirdoteeehe581
    @gacha.weirdoteeehe581 Před 6 lety +2

    I know why they ended they circus it’s because Barnum died

    • @BiLdoEMcLown
      @BiLdoEMcLown Před 2 lety

      He died LONG before they closed. That's possibly ther most ignorant thing I've heard said about the circus that had nothing to do with the animals. Congratulations on your third grade intellect.

    They should re open the show but they would have to get rid of animals and use animatronics

    Animals DO NOT belong in circuses. People do.

    • @raymondsoto2072
      @raymondsoto2072 Před 7 lety +4

      Lily Blekicki They were the biggest attraction and the main source of income to held keep the circus alive. Then a bunch of left wing PETA lovers called their use of animals cruel even though there is nothing wrong that's being done to the animals

    • @LilyS1031
      @LilyS1031 Před 7 lety +6

      +Undead Speedvenom I do not belong to Peta, and leftwing NOT. However, I have seen and learned enough about exotic animals to know that a circus is a prison sentence none of them deserve.

      Instead of closing they should've stayed open without the animals. Would it have killed them to go nonprofit?
