Thailand's disreputable Tiger Temple proposes to recommence underneath another name

         
TORONTO, February 23: A study by worldwide animal welfare charity World Animal Protection has shown that Thailand's contentious Tiger Temple Co. Ltd. is intending to re- commence beneath the new name Golden Tiger (Thailand) Co. Ltd.

The charity is tremendously worried about these events, because of the terrible conditions as well as circumstances that resulted in the shutting of Tiger Temple, and is urging the Thai government not to give out a zoo authorization to Golden Tiger (Thailand) Co. Ltd. to launch one more location.

Tiger Temple Co. Ltd, once a famous tourist lure owing to its enormous assortment of tigers, was verified to have no less than 147 tigers in 2016. After years of accusations of unlawful rearing and trading of the tigers and their parts, in May of previous year over 500 officers from Thailand's Department of National Parks, Wildlife and Plant Conservation (DNP) stormed the site unearthing dead cubs in freezers along with tiger skins, amulets as well as tiger teeth trinkets.

The Golden Tiger (Thailand) Co. Ltd. is presently building a new site in Kanchanaburi (in the West of Thailand) and have previously been delivered a temporary license by the DNP for this new business scheme. Nonetheless, a complete zoo authorization will not be delivered unless they fulfill 11 listed settings inside six months. These comprise enclosures considered big enough for the tigers and vet care, but disturbingly it neglects to veto breeding or tourist contacts with tigers at the planned new location.

Similarly, legal cases and police analyses into the unlawful wildlife trade accusations against Tiger Temple Co. Ltd. are still continuing, and conceding a zoo authorization would permit them to persist operating a tiger trade that possibly entertains brutality.

In 2016, World Animal Protection submitted a plea to the DNP urging a comprehensive probe into all confined tiger facilities in Thailand, and to sanction the breeding of tigers at commercial locations which offer no protection advantage for tigers in the wild.

Dr. Jan Schmidt-Burbach, senior wildlife advisor at World Animal Protection revealed, “Tiger farms have nothing to do with conservation – they just bring extreme suffering to these wild animals whilst living in appalling conditions.

These venues need to be stopped in their tracks because they clearly have links to the dark side of wildlife trafficking rings."

Preceding year World Animal Protection published a report on tigers utilized for amusement in Thailand which acknowledged a 33% upsurge in the number of tigers at tourism facilities throughout a five-year phase.

The chief welfare apprehensions seen by the investigators at these tourist sites revealed the following:
Tiger cubs brutally disconnected from their mothers, two to three weeks after they are born. Young cubs exploited as photo props with visitors, continuously seen and mistreated hundreds of times a day, which can result in strain and wound. Tigers being disciplined to end violent undesirable conduct. The majority of tigers were lodged in small concrete cages or bleak enclosures with inadequate admittance to fresh water.
Dr. Schmidt-Burbach further noted, "Tourists need to be aware that their once in a lifetime opportunity to get up close to a tiger causes a lifetime of suffering. A selfie with a tiger is cruel, so don't do it."
