Ringling Bros. back in NYC after years-long hiatus — but without iconic circus animals: ‘Worse than separating from my wife’

““It broke my heart. It broke me into pieces,” former Ringling Bros. animal trainer Tabajara Maluenda said of losing his job — and his tigers.

nypost.com

In 2016, after years of complaints from animal right activists and a lawsuit over mistreatment allegations, Ringling Bros. phased out its long-standing elephant performances.
While animal-rights organizations, including the Human Society, had been ordered to pay Ringling a nearly $16 million settlement, paid for making unproven allegations over mistreatment of elephants, it was too late. Attendance was down, operating costs were up, and the legendary circus had to call it quits — performing what looked to be its last-ever show, at Long Island’s Nassau Coliseum, in May 2018.

Am I the only person ignorant of the Ringling Bros winning $16 mil from the animal rights whackos for defamation? False claims that bankrupted them goes unreported? WTF?
