Animal rights protesters are planning to send a strong message to Hamilton Council during tonight's International Rodeo.
SAFE campaign manager Mandy Carter says rodeos are merely a cruel display of man's dominance and abuse of animals.
She wants the council to reconsider its policy for future events involving animals.
“Auckland Council refuses to have rodeos on their grounds,
it’s banned throughout the whole of Auckland.
So we want Hamilton
to do the same.”
A demonstration will be held at 5.30 outside Hamilton's Claudelands Arena.
