Animal-Free Circuses

in Animals in Entertainment

A listing of circuses that take a stand against cruelty by not using animals. Not all circuses publicize that they are animal-free, so this up-to-date list is a valuable resource. In addition, some circuses do not use animals in the show, and so say they are “animal-free,” though they may tour with a petting zoo or midway shows. Check here to make sure animal-free means no animals are used at all.
