Animal Welfare and the Circus: The Jack London Club
The Jack London Club strove to ban performing animal shows through a singular strategy: the walk out. Thousands of people joined the club each month by mailing a letter to the MSPCA headquarters in Boston, which included a written pledge to walk out of any animal amusement.

Animal Welfare and the Circus: The Jack London Club

Hi, I’m a docent at Jack London State Historic Park and recently came in touch with someone whose grandfather had an affiliation with Jack and Charmian. She has a letter from Charmian and check from Jack related to his advocacy for stage-trained animals. I thought you might like to see them. The park has a copy as well. Best, Kate Johnston
