Some people do have feeling's for baby animals and want to help it survive You appear to be living in a fantasy world. This is utter nonsense - cubs don't get "rescued" from the wild, they are STOLEN - the problem with Zoss is they perpetuate a "Walt Disney" fantasy of wildlife that is nothing to do with ecology, conservation and animal welfare - and you seem to have swallowed the false narrative hook line and sinker. It's a pity you haven't bothered to educate yourself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should monkeys stop petting each other ? That just seems to have summed up perfectly the problem with your arguments - you have got so much wrong it is impossible to know where to start. May I suggest that you just do some very basic thinking bout wildlife conservation and the role of zoos? I find it hard to understand how someone on this thread could come up with questions that show a complete and utter lack of understanding of even the most elementary points of the discussion. You've used false premises, false dichotomies and now a false equivalence, yet you don't seem token begin to understand how ludicrous your statements are.

To stop them getting killed In this situation the female becomes back into season if the cubs are killed. Once the male has mated the male and female seperate . The female is left to provide for the cub. The tiger kingdom cannot in this scenario rescue the cubs because it will already have been killed by the male. The female and male do not form a bond that ties them together. Edited May 8, 2022 by cleopatra2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If its a choice of the cubs either dying or the cubs being taken into care and surviving , I feel the latter is the better option .

Do you realise that you don't even understand the situation? - it is something you have made up that doesn't actually happen - however in a functioning eco-system animals die - they aren't immortal anywhere. Yes dead cubs are part of an eco-system - however what is deplorable is when they die as the result of human interference - either the mother is killed so the cubs can be captured or they die in traps. you really seem to be clueless and as you don't even see why eating ribs etches part of an ecosystem as I said it is impossible to have a reasoned, informed discussion with you.

You seem totally unaware of your lack of knowledge on this topic. You really have no idea what you are talking about . There are no traps and poaching is illegal . No one has suggested in any way that its acceptable for humans to participate in making tigers go into captivity . Humans are rescuing cubs who would other wise die . Tiger kingdom celibately killing tigers to get the cubs only exists in your imagination , its nothing to do with reality . It doesn't happen, you are very much mistaken . Rescue centers are not poachers . You seem to have the impression that people who rescue baby tigers are poachers 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
