Bill & Tom from Tokio Hotel stand up for animals
The twins Bill and Tom Kaulitz of Germany’s internationally most successful Rock band, Tokio Hotel protest with an elaborate photo opportunity for the use of animals in the entertainment industry: “The slaves of the entertainment industry: Wild animals out from the circus!” is the slogan in which the musicians participate for the first time now in a PETA campaign.
In chains and blood-smeared Bill and Tom shows in dark surroundings. The motif is published internationally: Apart from Europe, it is also seen in the U.S. and Asia.
“You only have time to imagine that animals are kept all their lives like that!” says Bill, “Circus performances with animals should be prohibited, there are enough interesting alternatives!”
Specifically, the musicians will appeal to parents who are still bringing their children to the circus with this motif. "Especially parents must develop a consciousness here." says Tom.

The two vegetarians also wonder about the Federal Government: On 17 October 2003, the Federal Council unanimously sent a clear signal to the federal government and in resolution wild animals in the circus (especially elephants, monkeys and bears) were voted to be banned. The federal government still does not move and animal abuse continues.
A recent representative survey of the Society for Consumer Research in Nuremberg (April 2010) clearly shows that two thirds of the population of wild animals in circuses are no longer timely. And the Federal Chamber of Veterinary Surgeons in April 2010 spoke with clear words and called for reasons of animal protection, the prohibition of wild animals in traveling circuses.
While European countries such as Austria, Denmark, Sweden, Bulgaria, etc. have already imposed a ban on wild animals, the federal government remains passive and thus ignorant of animal suffering.
