As the Christmas period draws nearer, we have seen a rise in the amount of local authorities and businesses using live animals in displays. The consequence is that wild animals such as reindeer and penguins are being lugged around the country in trailers under stressful and thoroughly unnatural conditions.
Busy high streets and shopping centres are clearly not their natural habitat. Not only are they prevented from exhibiting their natural behaviour, the noisy and exuberant Christmas crowds are the last things they should be exposed to. But given the tiny pens and open enclosures to which they are generally confined during the “entertainment”, they have nowhere to hide.
If you know of anywhere that is hosting a live animal event this festive season, please take action!
