Here we go! Once again, the lawsuit filed by animal special interest groups on the treatment of circus elephants is UP! It has been put off 8 years while the extremists capitalize on the publicity value of their meritless allegations.
Soon the jig will be up! The trial is to begin Wednesday! You can stay up to date with the facts by going to the CFA website www.circusfans.org. Under the CFA logo on the left, look for "search site" - key in the word "trial" and click on "go". It will bring up the links to the latest information from Feld Entertainment. This is the same site to which they will be directing reporters. The people at Feld have been kind enough to include we CIRCUS FANS in their daily updates. You will be privy to the same information as the press. Use it often.
We are ready to support Ringling Bros. & Barnum & Bailey, The Greatest Show On Earth. We have several other affirmative grass roots campaigns about to kick off in the USA! Be alert. Be ready. Be with it and for it! This is OUR day in court at last!
Regards,
Gary C. Payne

JIm,
Thank you for the link. What are you thoughts on the impact this will have on the ESA, if it is shifted to captive animals?

from Jim Stockley:
Hello Wade, I'm afraid I am not really familiar with your Endangered Species Act or of any impact it will have on America's captive animals. Any impact that the trial has on private ownership of elephants in the USA is bound to affect private ownership of captive elephants elsewhere. The AR groups will see to that. We all watch with interest.

Jim,
When the law was written in 1973 I would assume it was for animals like Black Footed Ferrets, Whooping Cranes, Bald Eagles.
I saw recently where a bloke over in England was charged with riding a horse while intoxicated, because of some loop hole in an antiquated law written in the 1700's that the prosecutor found. If the gent had ridden around that hamlet he would have been fine, but he rode into the town boundaries. LOL I suggest that wasn't what the law was originally written for, which is why law's change if their original intent in bastardized.
Wade
