Campaigns Animal activists protest outside Royal Hanneford Circus in White Plains From Channel 12 News (www.news12.com) 2/24/04: (02/14/04) WHITE PLAINS - The Royal Hanneford Circus is back in town at
the County Center in White Plains. While some families came to enjoy the
show, others showed up to protest the circus performers' use of performing
animals such as elephants and tigers. The protesters gathered outside the "big top," saying they are concerned
the animals are not treated well in circus troops. News 12 Westchester's
cameras were not allowed to film the animals, but circus officials say state
officials check all the animals upon arrival and departure. The Royal Hanneford Circus runs through Monday, President's Day, at the
County Center in White Plains. Fair Use Notice: This document may contain
