The sponsor of a

bill to ban wild and exotic animals

at entertainment events like the circus refuses to explain why she granted an exemption for Radio City Music Hall’s Christmas show, where camels have long been a part of the annual spectacular.

“I don’t have the answers to those questions,” said John Blasco, a spokesman for City Council member Rosie Mendez (D-Manhattan).

Three Kings Day ceremonies that fall after Christmas also employ camels, but those are religious events. Radio City’s show is not.

Tom Albert, a vice president of government relations at Feld Entertainment, Ringling Bros.’ parent, testified at a Council hearing Thursday that the exemption is proof the bill discriminates against circuses.
