France's environment minister has announced a gradual ban on using wild animals in traveling circuses, on keeping dolphins and killer whales in captivity in marine parks and on raising mink on fur farms. Barbara Pompili, France's minister of ecological transition, said in a news conference that bears, tigers, lions, elephants and other wild animals won't be allowed any more in travelling circuses “in the coming years.”
