The Secret Life of the American Teenager star Megan Park is no stranger to the public eye. As a member of the hot, young Hollywood elite, Megan gets to choose when and where she performs, but unfortunately animals in the entertainment industry aren’t afforded that same luxury, which is why the Canadian native is asking Ontario officials to stand up for elephants in circuses by completely banning bullhooks (sharp metal pokers).
In a letter delivered today to the Legislative Assembly of Ontario, Megan calls on the Members of Provincial Parliament to support Bill 69, The Elephant Protection Act, which would ban bullhooks and similar devices—which are used to intimidate and hurt elephants—in circuses and zoos in Ontario. PETA has documented years of abuse during which elephants have been routinely struck with bullhooks on the most sensitive parts of their bodies in order to force them to perform tricks.
Thank you, One Eye Video Productions, for providing video footage of the event.
Hopefully Megan’s hometown pride will inspire compassion in city officials and convince them to ditch the “cruelest show on Earth.” Go get ‘em, Megan!

Too long to explain here, it's long enough for a novel.
Father loves to farm, be self sustainable, loves to read, he's a antiques/vintage auctioneer, art student, and looks like mr. Rogers. My mother is a Montessori teacher and is amazing with children, all about local organic foods, loves gardening, cooking etc. my sister who is nine years older than me was into indie music and introduced me to all sorts of things at a young age. This all rubbed of on me and from that base I grew into similar things. I'm an INFJ
I'm tall, a geek, nacho - obsessed, I love sewing and Cath Kidston, also I'm vegetarian (wannabe vegan.)
Well let's just say life ain't always beautiful but it's a beautiful ride. I love all my pets and would do anything for them. I have one dog, two cats, a ferret and my babygirl shaymin,(the cutest hedgehog alive) I'm into all different kinds of music. I'm a singer myself and love art.
I love animals about as much as rock, heavy metal, tea, and coffee. Hoping to make a difference and help animals through PETA!!!
I want to get into marketing but not have to rely on people which have different morals and worldviews than I do to hire me. While I'm figuring this out, I want to show everyone what I believe in and spur them into action against injustices.
