Animal Care
The Big Apple Circus insists upon sensitivity to quality of life both in and out of the ring. This respect and care is shown equally for all of our performers, human and Animal alike. We continue to be committed to presenting the finest classical circus in America, featuring all fellow creatures with whom we have a working relationship. The Big Apple Circus never has, nor ever will, condone any form of animal abuse whatsoever.
