    Such a rare and beautiful animal, its a shame they didn't rehome the tigers or find someone to help them out...

    Angry Re: 11 Siberian tigers starve to death in zoo

    oh wow...i'm at a loss of words...i'd put the owners and managers of that Zoo in small cages and feed them chicken bones for a couple of months to see how they like it...that'll teach people to abuse animals...

    seriously...i didn't know about this...i get so angry when i have to read about stuff like this...

    Re: 11 Siberian tigers starve to death in zoo

    Thats sick...what about the rest of the animals at the zoo? Isnt there some sort of laws governing endangered species that would prevent something like this from happening? Im sure some kind of wildlife reserve would have took them.

    I should not say this but I think this is all about greed.

    Re: 11 Siberian tigers starve to death in zoo

    That is just sick. I can't believe none of the employees went to the press or police before they all died. They were obviously sick and starving. 11 animals don't just up and die

    Re: 11 Siberian tigers starve to death in zoo

    I don't know if this is what is going on with this zoo, but I have read about tiger 'zoos' (read: farms) in China that raise tigers for their bones for tiger wine. They aren't allowed to kill them due to the laws (but they are allow to die from 'natural' causes..) so they essientially starve them to death. :/

    Re: 11 Siberian tigers starve to death in zoo

    china is a different country and has a different way of thinking and life. ive been all over the world and seen things that floored me but locals didnt even notice it. privately owned, lack of funds, employees not being paid for 18 months!!! the world is a crazy place, that is why america has troops everywhere
    A room full of empty racks and thermostats that have been unplugged.
