Carousels banned in Ronda and Ciempozuelos

We have plenty to celebrate as new towns and cities around Andalucia are responding to our appeal to ban donkey and pony carousels at local celebrations.

Ronda, one of the most touristic cities in Andalucia, is the latest to ban such fairground attractions.

Following our appeal, the council has decided not to allow these attractions where donkeys and/or ponies are forced to work long hours with little rest, food or water. Further inland, Ciempozuelos in Madrid has also decided to join the ban.

One of the most valuable things about this is that we are creating awareness around animal welfare. This is especially important among younger generations, who will no longer see animal slavery as entertainment.

We will keep on working on education and welfare culture improvement.
