A video has come out that shows a segment of a show from one of Indonesia’s travelling circuses. The video shows a bear doing pullups, an otter unning on a barrell, and a dolphin seemingly distressed as it is kept out of water for an unusually long time. Animals Asia, a company that fights for animal welfare, has released the video to try to convince viewers that these kind of circuses are inhumane. A petition has begun being circulated by Animals Asia to fight the airways that bring these animals over to perform in the circuses.

Key Takeaways:

• Animals Asia released footage taped at an Indonesian circus where a dolphin left at the side of a pool is struggling to get air.
• Dolphins are not made to spend time outside the water. It can cause serious health problems, even death.
• The activists want Sriwijaya Air to stop transporting these animals.

“The lack of buoyancy can lead to pressure on the lung, which can cause respiratory problems, and the rapid dehydration can have a negative impact on their skin.”
