The “Greatest Show On Earth” will soon be without its elephants.  Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey is phasing out elephants in its shows, and all of its elephants will retire by 2018.  The circus will continue to feature other animal performers, including lions, tigers and bears.  (Oh, my!)  Horses, dogs and camels will still feature, too.

So now that Ringling is phasing elephants out of the circus, should they remove all exotic animals from their shows?
