I remember as a kid going to the circus and watching them have tigers do tricks and everything...I loved it.
But remember, It's a tiger..Something that could pretty much take your face off with one swipe of his paw.
I have total respect for the trainers who can train these big kitty's to be friendly...but...I don't care if this tiger has been under human care since birth..It's still a tiger that has the killing instict..and the risk of it eating you for lunch is always there.
It mentioned that it was a white tiger...So it was a siberian tiger, A tiger that is almost extinct.
If these people want to risk doing shows with a predator animal, That's fine by me...But when it turns on them, They can't blame the animal. That's what they do..There hunters.
I really hope this tiger can just be sent to some kind of shelter where they take care of these beautifull cats..and keep them safe from pochers or whatever those guys are called.
As fascinating as it is to see humans interacting with such a dangerous animal...I don't think it's right, These things belong in the wild..Or in the shelters away from pochers like I said above.
I know and you know what the risks are of an animal like this turning on it's trainers...And when the tiger does decide he's had enough of that whip...Your gonna know it.
I will be livid if I read that they put the tiger down.

I agree with you conpletely. Although I don't go to the Circus because I've heard horror stories about them abusing their animals. I also thing that those kinds of animals belong in the wild... it's so sad for them to be imprisioned.
