The circus is coming to Bridgeport as it does every October. If you care about wild animals, you can join the protest rallies to be held there against circus animal abuse. See below for the details on the protests.
For an informative summary on animal abuse in circuses and its history in Bridgeport, I hope you will read my previous blog “Will The Circus Ever Leave Town? – Bridgeport Elephant Abuse”
