Back in the early 20th century, it wasn’t uncommon for circuses and traveling shows to stage fights where bears wrestled or even “boxed” humans as a form of entertainment. These events drew huge crowds but were extremely cruel to the animals. Over time, stronger animal protection laws were introduced in many countries, putting an end to these kinds of spectacles and protecting animals from being used this way. #facts #history #boxingfacts #boxinghistory #grizzly #bear
