Bears forced to box in Russian circus

At the Sochi circus in Russia, a cruel practice is causing controversy: two bears are forced to box each other. Videos posted online show these large predators, dressed in striped shorts and gloves, fighting under bright lights and in front of a massive audience. This staging triggered a wave of negative reactions, leading to the launch of a petition with over 116,000 signatures calling for an end to the use of animals in circuses.
