Thailand, Tiger Temple

Visit of the Tiger Temple in Dec. 2007. The tigers are really beautiful. But unfortunately recently I found out that the tigers might be exploited and treated badly. Please read the report "Exploiting the tiger":

I recently read a report "Exploiting the tigers" and unfortunately it seems that the monks and other involved people exploit the tigers and treat them badly. I posted a link in the video description, where you can find the report "Exploiting the tigers".

@jklym81: I am afraid that you are right. I searched for information and unfortuntely it seems that the tigers are exploited and treated badly. I posted a link "Exploiting the tiger"/careforthewild. It would be better to close the tiger temple and free the tigers! Tigers are so rare and beautiful. They deserve a better life and treatment!!!!!
