La nova etapa política a l'Ajuntament de Barcelona, amb ERC i ICV fora del govern, dóna esperances a un tomb de la situació i a un canvi en la normativa que prohibeix els animals al circ. Tot i que CiU i el PP van votar a favor de l'ordenança, tan Xavier Trias, l'actual alcalde, com Alberto Fernández Díaz, líder del PP, van qüestionar la normativa i van demanar durant la legislatura passada que fos més flexible amb els circs. Ara, un portaveu de l'Ajuntament de Barcelona ha assegurat, per primera vegada des de l'aprovació de l'ordenança, fa quasi vuit anys, que al consistori barceloní “no li agrada” aquesta ordenança, tot i que al mateix temps assenyala que “la farà complir”.

Vuit anys de conflictes

El Circo Mundial, un dels millors circs de l'Estat, ha deixat de venir com a protesta per la prohibició. Des de l'aprovació de la normativa, l'artífex de la qual va ser Jordi Portabella, d'ERC, han passat de llarg de Barcelona pel mateix motiu el circ francès Medrano i el nord-americà Ringling. Els conflictes han estat constants. L'any 2005, l'Ajuntament va prohibir un número de foques al Circ Raluy, i quatre anys després, el 2009, un de cocodrils al Circo Universal, que va desafiar el consistori exhibint els animals en una funció tot i les amenaces de l'Ajuntament. Durant aquests anys, el Circo Americano també ha organitzat una recollida de firmes i l'Ajuntament s'ha saltat la seva pròpia normativa i ha programat en la festa major del Poblenou un espectacle amb serps del faquir Kirman que uns mesos abans havia prohibit en una castanyada.
