Leave Yelp and Google reviews for the St. Paul Osman Shrine Circus, and the MN State Fairgrounds hosting the circus:
Review sample 1: “Wow, the St. Paul Osman Shrine Circus is still using animals at their events, and resorting to bull hooks in this day and age. Outdated! Even if these amazing animals were treated well, fed well and cared for it is NOT our place as civilized people to use them for our entertainment & amusement. The Shriners are a terrific organization but they can NOT lay claim to the building of character while they continue this abuse of animals.”
Review Sample 2: “The St. Paul Osman Shrine Circus has exploited animals in their circuses for 100 years. That’s not something to be proud of. Evolve! The only humane circus is one that offers only human feats!”
Reach out the St. Paul Osman Shrine Circus. Share your request that they stop using animal acts at their circus.
