Washington bans wild animals in circuses, joins global animal welfare movement
In a major win for animal welfare, Washington has passed a new law banning the use of wild animals in traveling circuses. The law covers elephants, big cats, bears, and non-human primates, and will take effect in 90 days.
With this decision, Washington becomes the 12th U.S. state to adopt such legislation, aligning with more than 50 countries worldwide that have already restricted or banned wild animal acts in circuses — including France, India, Mexico, and over 20 African nations.
As more regions act, some circuses are embracing innovation over exploitation. In Germany, Circus Roncalli now uses holograms to bring animals to life in the ring. This is a cruelty-free, futuristic alternative that wows audiences without harming animals.
