Safety violation shuts down circus

Image
I am not sure what happened, but Circus Aguilar never opened at Westminster Mall at all. It's sitting there, but it's been closed the entire time. When I inquired what happened the mall spokesperson said that the circus never passed the safety violation code. They would not elaborate what kind of code violations were cited. The really sad part of this story is knowing that all the animals are still being kept there inside a dark, small tent while the circus sits empty for days in the parking lot. They've briefly been taken out to be bathed, but other than they haven't been seen much at all. There's no grass for them to walk on, no field. Just a small tent erected on asphalt next to the freeway with little hoofs peeking out from the dark of the doorway every now and then. Very depressing. I wish I had happier news to report about any of this, but I don't. It's just sorry and sad this is precisely why I don't support using animals for entertainment,
