I READ with sadness the letter by your reader, K Dodgson concerning animals at the touring circus (Citizen, June 8) and I share her disgust.

I wonder why the RSPCA, whose policy condemns circuses with performing animals does not do something about these cruel displays?

The misery of the transporting of circus animals in stuffy, overcrowded vehicles is another disturbing fact.
