The world changes and we evolve. We come to realize that wild animals are not happy in captivity and that showcasing people with differences/disabilities is insensitive. Barnum and Bailey (the animal circus) closes after 146 years while Cirque du Soleil (the human circus) thrives. These photos capture some of the essence of a disappearing way of life.
