The performance of animals in circuses should be banned

The health and safety condition for animals performing in circuses is very meagre. So is ban, the only solution or the condition of performing animals should be improved.

For:

- The animals are wreaked with horrendous malice during their forced incarceration or training
- The living conditions for circus animals are very miniscule as they are trapped in cages or pens shaped houses which is very small for their habitat as compared to the jungles leaving them in pain all the time
- It is said, living beings are social creatures, hence it is applied for the animals as well; the circus animals being accommodated in cages deprives them from the social lives as well
- The circus people do not have much of funds to improve their conditions hence applying appropriate laws would be of no use
- The trainers, train the animals by punishing them or depriving them of food and even by abusing them physically
- High decibel of volume, bright lights also adds to their torment
- Circuses are held in different states, leading to regular transportation which is harmful for the animals, as they are not that adaptable with all kinds of climate also leading to a upsurge of the extinction

Against:

- Despite proscription of wild and imperilled species, smearing a complete ban over circuses is not necessary to be implied
- The circus industry is already in the attenuation phase, and if a ban is imposed it’s evident that it will be completely wiped out and so will be the populaces involved in the circus industry would be on the dole, hampering their life
- The commandments and the protection rights imposed on the circus industry has already steered in their shrinkage
- The injunction of the ban on performance of animals in circuses would persuade them to acquire wild animals by illegitimate methods like plundering of animals
- It would also lead in assimilating a large number of animals who are not medically fit to survive within the clan of wild animals, hence leading to their demise
- The animals might also lead in the expiring of the animals or may be the animals might be emaciated by the humans as there is grim space available for their shelter with the government
- As an alternative the government could make strict laws in regards to their welfare standards and conditions in which they are kept along with strict vigilance on the implementation of the laws
- Registration with the apt authorities should be made before the circus employees start training the animals and get it approved by the local authority in terms of their welfare and living conditions

Conclusion:

- Circuses are entertaining for a lot of people, but if it’s on the cost of exploitation of animals, then a ban is necessary or the other alternative is to take care of the animals and keep them in a good and healthy condition.
