Controversy in Iglesias for the presence of animals in the company of the circus Rinaldo Orfei.

Arrived in the last few days in the Municipality, the circus activity was first the subject of an infinite series of grievances by animal rights activists on social channels, where the message boards were clogged with protests due to the presence of some pachyderms.

The dispute, however, went beyond the sterile diatribes: due to some photos and videos that portray the images of an elephant led into a container used for transport to spend the night, some citizens have forwarded reports to the police, soliciting some in-depth studies aimed at avoiding any mistreatment of animals .

The pachyderms during most of the hours of the day are left free to roam in a large rural area and have become an attraction for many passers-by curious to be able to see them up close.

For its part, the circus company says it is certain that the laws and the rights of animals are fully respected.
