How many circuses in the world use animals and how many don't?

While exact numbers vary, it is estimated that around 30 to 40 percent of circuses worldwide still use animals in their performances. The trend is shifting, with many circuses transitioning to animal-free shows due to growing public concern about animal welfare. As a result, a significant number of circuses, particularly in North America and Europe, have adopted policies to eliminate animal acts, focusing instead on acrobatics, clowns, and other human performances. The exact count of circuses using animals versus those that don't can be difficult to determine due to the diverse and changing nature of the industry.
