Please join local PETA supporters, in a peaceful protest of the Carden Circus for its use of animals, including Betty, the world's most depressed elephant. Betty was torn from her home in Thailand as a baby and condemned to a lifetime of exploitation.
The 56-year-old elderly elephant has spent nearly four decades in chains, being dragged from town to town to force her to perform in circuses. Betty needs to be freed to a reputable sanctuary before it's too late and potentially suffers from a fatal collapse.
For more information about Betty please visit:

Betty needs us all to speak out for her and call for her freedom!

We have a required dress code! Please dress sharply in a PETA T-shirt (we will provide one if you don’t already own one), nice black pants, and close-toed shoes. We must ensure that the focus remains on the animals without any distractions that could shift people’s attention.
All materials, such as posters, will be provided.
Please refrain from bringing dogs, as there might not be a comfortable place for them to lie down during the protest.
