The HIGHlarious Sarah Silverman spends most her time making us laugh, but today gurlfriend is not joking around!!
The comedian has sent a deadly serious letter on PETA’s behalf to the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) calling on the government to remove four ailing elephants├óΓé¼ΓÇ¥ including a fellow Sara ├óΓé¼ΓÇ¥from the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus.
In the letter, Silverman explains that recent veterinary evidence shows that the elephants are being forced to perform grueling tricks despite suffering from lameness and, in two cases, arthritis—the number one reason for euthanasia in captive elephants.
Sarah, a longtime vegetarian, joins other celebrities including Demi Moore, Kyra Sedgwick, Darren Aronofsky, and Olivia Munn, who have teamed up with PETA to protest Ringling Bros.
