Recently there was a circus in town here. The local (free) papers' call-in lines were full of people complaining about the treatment of the tigers/other animals. The way it was being portrayed, it sounded pretty bad. I never saw the conditions/cirus myself though (too bad -- I would have enjoyed a trip to the circus
), so I've kinda held off judgement. Maybe next time it comes around I'll catch it and see it myself.
