Default Re: Zoo feeds live cows to tigers

How can it possibly simulate the wild? There would have been a herd of 'cows' and the weakest would have been claimed by the Tigers.

It's nothing more than a money making ploy for the sick b******S who want to benefit from the sick b******s who want to watch this sort of cruelty.

But it's not just a question of "suffering", but of wilful cruelty.

Not that I would ever visit a zoo that had this kind of "attraction" but in my situation my daughter would not be questioning why the tigers kill the cow but why the human loaded the cow in the back of a lorry and dumped it in the vicinity of the tigers.

This is a strange situation.

The feeding of live animals to these Tigers was probably instigated as part of an attempt to get them ready for release into the wild. But has been kidnapped as a gory money making ploy.

Why is the photographer not on a bus? He’s with the delivery truck which makes one think this is staged to get some sort of sick publicity.
