People have asked why Craig is not happy about the feeding of animals with tit bits by the staff and visitors on ZWG tours. It is because this goes against the core principles on which Craig founded ZWG. When Craig became the guardian of these animals, it was so they could have the best life possible in captivity and that included them retaining their dignity. The close contact tours were intended to inspire people to better conservation values. These animals were intended to be ambassadors for their species, sending out a message that we protect endangered wildlife for the future.
It is not ideal for these animals to associate food so closely with people, this practice adversely affects their feeding patterns and there is also a chance of injury to their mouths and fangs from the enclosure wire or the tongs. Feeding of adult cats did not form any part of the tours when Craig was in control at ZWG.

ZWG has gone from bad to worse over the last year, look how skinny that poor white tiger is.
This is horrible, I don't understand why these people won't let Craig back into ZWG, surely these endangered animals welfare comes before our damn pride; suck it up and let him tend to his friends!
