11 Siberian Tigers have starved to death at the Shenyang Forest Wild Animal Zoo in Liaoning province,China. Siberian Tigers which are among the rare and protected species of the world, were fed with the minimum amount of chicken bones only and enclosed in small metal cages!
About only 300 species of this animal survive in the wild. One of the zoo’s manager mentioned that the animals died of diseases and not of hunger as reported. However, knowing that Siberian tigers are fed with remains of chicken bones, enclosed in metal cages in an horrible winter without any heating system and being a zoo which has not paid its employees for over 18 months, we are not so close to believe the disease crap!
Siberian Tigers are indeed expensive to take care of, and we also understand the the zoo’s ticket sales can decline but if the Chinese Government wish to appear less like a magg0t of animal execution, laws to regulate zoos and enforce standards for animal care are to be strengthened.

So sad to see tigers go without the nutrition that is needed.

Who is the beast here? Tigers for killing for the purpose of feeding themselves in the wild or humans for killing out of negligence?! Humans are the worst beasts of all !!!! Why didn`t they release them back to the wilderness?!!!

Well said. If they could not feed the animals, it would have been better that they were released in the wild.
