For nine generations the Rosaire family has entertained audiences all over the world with their legendary animal acts.  From lions and tigers, to bears and chimpanzees, to a famous horse named “Tony the Wonder Horse”, the Rosaires are renowned for their unique and respectful way of training and performing with wild animals.

The Rosaire’s roots are deeply embedded in circus tradition.  Their forefathers were court jesters, acrobats and animal trainers who traveled through the villages of Europe captivating audiences with their family side shows and wild animal menageries.  However, the circus life of their ancestors is a very different one today.  Major declines in audience attendance and increasing, yet legitimate concerns for animal welfare have greatly impacted the Rosaire’s traditional way of life.

Jobs are scarce in circus and living the life of gypsy performers is taking its toll.  The Rosaires are acutely aware that their traditional way of making a living is slowly dying.  However, they continue struggling to keep it alive because it’s in their blood and it’s all they know.

And if you’re concerned about the well-being of these amazing animals, don’t be. There are only three paths for abandoned wildlife:

One is at a zoo or accredited sanctuary like the Rosaire’s.  Another is being sold on the black market to abusive or unqualified homes.  And the last is being put to sleep.  So based on a ton of research I personally have done into their “Big Cat Habitat”, I wholeheartedly believe the lucky animals there have thankfully landed in an ideal situation given the circumstances and other choices.

We urge you to watch the award-winning documentary ‘Circus Rosaire’ for more information about the family’s history and their big-top escapades.
