Circus's - Should they be banned?

No animal should be kept in captivity, least of all for human entertainment. Zoo's are widely recognised as saviours of endangoured species. Circuses on the other hand exploit the animals with little interest into rehabilitating the species, setting up breeding programs etc. While I don't believe all circuses are cruel to animals, they do not have the same (albeit minimal) freedom zoo's provide.

Agree

Most Zoo's I've been to (and worked at) treat all animals with decent meals, large spaces and entertainment/facilities so they're not being mistreated. but in Circus's they're teased and if they backlash they're teased even more as just displayed.

I've not a problem with well run Zoo's but I do not like circus's.
