Getting close to legal case against Ringling Brothers Circus - again
Category: 1. General News, 4. Welfare News, Elephants in captivity | Date: Jan 15 2009 | By: elephantvoices
We are once more getting close to the opening day of the legal case against Ringling Brothers Circus for their mistreatment of elephants, in which Joyce is one of the expert witnesses. The case has been mentioned in this blog on WildlifeDirect a few times, the first being February 2007. We hope that the case will go according to plan this time, and that it will be concluded with a positive outcome for elephants.
The legal case against Ringling Brothers has been followed by the media for many years - this news piece on CBS4 from 4 January 2006 is one of very many examples.
Cheers, Petter

Where will it be and what can we do to make sure the elephants win!

It takes place in Washington DC. And it’s up to the court now, based on lots of witnesses and other contributors. Keep your fingers crossed!
