This is the moment a PETA member disrupted a ball to denounce animal exploitation at a circus in Texas.

Footage shows the female protester crashing the Nobility Ball at the Sharon Shrine temple to condemn the alleged cruelty at the Sharon Shrine Circus on February 18.

In a statement, PETA said the Sharon Shrine Circus showcases the 'domination of wild animals' which are confined in small cages and deprived of a normal life.

The animal organisation accused Sharon Shriners of partnering with 'notoriously cruel' exhibitors such as Carson & Barnes Circus.

PETA's Executive Vice President Tracy Reiman said: 'Wild animals should be free to live their rich lives, not chained, beaten, and forced to perform in circus acts that harken back to an ignorant era.

'PETA is calling on the Sharon Shriners to stop promoting cruelty under the big top and end animal shows, as numerous other Shrines have done.'
