TAKE ACTION: Please sign our petition to demand an end to inhumane rodeo practices in our community.
Why ban inhumane rodeo practices?
San Diego Humane Society is dedicated to creating a more humane world, and banning inhumane rodeo practices is a critical step toward achieving that goal.
Rodeos often involve calf roping, steer wrestling and bull riding, practices that can cause unnecessary physical and psychological harm to the animals involved. Additionally, animals are historically forced to perform in rodeos through the use of inhumane tools like electric prods and bucking straps. San Diego, a city that prides itself on compassion and respect for all living beings, should not endorse forms of entertainment that subject animals to fear, distress and cruelty.
We believe that compassion for animals must coexist with respect for communities that value rodeos as part of their culture and history. By advocating for a ban on inhumane rodeo practices, we can ensure that entertainment in our city does not come at the expense of animal welfare.
