ARAN / ADI Stop Circus Suffering Urges Government to Stamp Out Animal Act Circuses!![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() On December 10th during ‘International Day for Animal Rights 2008’ a huge 10ft ‘elephant’ led a peaceful demonstration outside the Department of Agriculture in Dublin on behalf of Animal Rights Action Network and Animal Defenders International as our campaigners geared up for an important meeting to discuss the new upcoming revised Irish animal welfare bill which is due to be published during 2009. During our peaceful event, members and supporters of Animal Rights Action Network gathered outside the Department with the ‘elephant’ and held posters and a huge banner reading ‘Stop Circus Suffering’, other members held another banner reading ‘Cruelty to animals must stop. FULL STOP.’ The event was also led with a chant ‘There’s No Excuse for Animal Abuse’. Our daytime demonstration was also watched by groups of passing school children who got to see our vital message surrounding the use and abuse of animals in Irish circuses. |
