"Bears, elephants, tigers, and other animals do not voluntarily ride bicycles, stand on their heads, balance on balls, or jump through rings of fire. They don't perform these and other difficult tricks because they want to; they perform them because they're afraid of what will happen if they don't."

Circuses use several 'tools for torture' such as whips, tight collars, muzzles, electric prods, bullhooks and more to train the poor animals to perform simply to make us smile.
We, the people of Australia, need to work together to get the use of animals in circuses in Australia banned completely.
