Guest guest Posted October 16, 2008 Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 Help Educate Circus Patrons At UniverSoul Circus Please join Citizens For Cruelty-Free Entertainment at UniverSoul Circus, October 25 through November 2, to educate patrons about the inherent cruelty of using animals in circuses. UniverSoul now leases animals from at least three different animal leasing companies, including Lancelot Kollman Ramos who the USDA found responsible for causing injuries to two lions resulting in the unnecessary death of one, lying to investigators about his actions, using physical abuse to train lions, and in the past two years been fined in excess $50,000 for violations of the Animal Welfare Act. In addition, UniverSoul leases three elephants from George Hanneford III. These three elephants were all taken as babies from their mothers and homes in the wild. Hanneford uses fear and the violence of a bullhook or ankus (which is a weapon that resembles a fireplace poker) to dominate the elephants. One of the elephants routinely forced to give rides has a physical defect with her leg which causes her to limp. In addition to elephants, tigers, zebras, camels, horses and other animals are used in the show. Below is the leafleting schedule for UniverSoul Circus. We hope you can join us!! Please tell your friends. LOCATION: Vacant Lot - 5601 Oakport Street at 66th Street off Hwy 880, Oakland LEAFLET DATES/TIMES: ** Please be prompt for these leafleting times, as we leaflet patrons exiting one show and entering the next.
