馬戲之動物表演

Boog 在人類世界的生活可以說是很安穩。每天跟著Beth表演幾場馬戲，要吃有吃要喝有喝，還有寵物。要說這動物表演在馬戲中可是由來已久，光是“馬戲”這個名字你就能猜到這些表演一定有動物參與。

Lion tamer, in lithograph by Gibson & Co., 1873.

A variety of animals have historically been used in circus acts. While the types of animals used varies from circus to circus, big cats, elephants, horses, birds, sea lions and domestic animals are the most common.

The earliest involvement in animals in circus was just the display of exotic creatures. As far back as the early eighteenth century, exotic animals were transported to North America for display, and menageries were a popular form of entertainment. The first true animals acts in the circus were equestrian acts. Soon elephants and big cats were displayed as well. Isaac A. Van Amburgh entered a cage with several big cats in 1833, and is generally considered to be the first wild animal trainer in circus history. Mabel Stark was a famous female tiger-tamer.

Recently the use of animals in the circus has been a matter for controversy, as animal welfare groups have documented several instances of animal cruelty, used in the training of performing animals. Sweden, Austria, Costa Rica, India, Finland, and Singapore have restricted the use of animals in entertainment. The UK and Scottish Parliaments have committed to ban certain wild animals in traveling circuses. In response to a growing unease from the public about the use of animals in entertainment the formation of animal free circuses have begun cropping up around the globe. (answers.com)
