As the circus chugs into town on its mile-long train, a federal lawsuit casts a shadow over the Greatest Show on Earth. … “Elephants are mobile animals,” said Nicole Paquette, senior vice president and general counsel for Born Free USA, a plaintiff in the trial. “They want to walk around and roam for food and water. In the circus, they’re chained, one foot in the front and one in the back.”
