Broward County Residents Help Expel the Circus!

To:  Broward County School Board

We, the undersigned residents of Broward County, support the Animal Rights Foundation of Florida (ARFF) in their request for the Broward County School Board to adopt a district-wide policy not to support circuses with animal acts through field trips or the distribution of promotional materials.

Animals used by the circus are denied their rights and trained using violence and intimidation. Every circus with animal acts has a long list of federal government-issued citations ranging from failure to provide veterinary care to inflicting physical harm. Animal acts give children the impression that it is ok to harm and manipulate animals under the guise of “entertainment.” This is unacceptable.

(Because this petition is specific to the Broward County School Board, it is IMPERATIVE that ALL signatories INCLUDE A BROWARD COUNTY ADDRESS TO BE LISTED.)

Sincerely,

The Undersigned
