Oh we think logic alright, it's them, the world we live in, who are the ones who don't. How did dodos became excnict? What's happening to the animals in the Rainforest? Why is there over-population problems? Because of HUMANS!! We are why dodos becma extinct. We are why the rainforest is falling, taking it's eco-system with it we. We are why, there are such things as "Over populations". It's us, humans!

Honestly guys, population control is needed in some places, but what I was trying to say is the humans are what cause everything! And not all wolves are endangered/becoming endangered/in danger of becoming endangered. Sorry if I didn't clarify that enough. There's so many more humans than animals, so that's what I'm saying about population control. And I'm not a "wolfaboo" or whatever you want to call it. Sure, I love wolves, but I'm not just gonna go around saying "Oh! Save the poor wolfies! They're all endangered!" and stuff like that.

Anyways, I think the next topic should be Circuses: What do you think about them?

I think the way they handle/train/care for the animals is just flat-out SAD!!!! Not all circuses are like that, though. Small, family-owned-and-run circuses can be fine.....but it's the big ones like the Ringling Bros..

aweful.... the horses they use which are ridden bareback while people covorte on them.....their backs just be terrible!

I'll have to disagree, slightly...
Surely it's the small ones which are worse? The big ones are obviously more professional, and have the 'image' to keep up. The people who ride, train and look after the horses know what they're doing, or they wouldn't be fit enough to perform. Surely?
But then again, it differs from country to country, and as most of the ones I've seen aren't actually British, but from somewhere in Europe or Russia, they will have different rules and ideas of looking after animals, and what classes as 'cruelty'.
I, personally don't find circuses cruel, but that's just me. I've never been shown anything to make me think differently. AND before you do this: a load of YouTube videos of 'cruel circuses' won't change my mind. -_-"

Don't worry, there weren't any videos on the way =) I don't know...the American circuses all have bad reps with animals, but hey, I don't know everything for sure, so I could be wrong. Well, one of my friends and his family are part of a 3-family circus, and they have around 10 animals, and they treat them VERY well. I've actually spent a day with them to see what it's like.
