This is one subject that I have strong feelings about. I am a strong lover of Tigers. I understand that at one point in our history, people thought it was necessary to kill these beautiful animals. But you would think, in today's society, we would have learnt from those mistakes. These days we can make print fur that looks remarkable like the proper fur. But still, there is a high demand for Tiger fur, Lion fur, and other such endangered animals.
Some people could argue, 'Well, we kill cows, sheep and pigs. What's the difference?'. I'll tell you the difference. The difference is, we only kill these animals for food, clothing and other by products. Most people kill Lions and Tigers, etc, for the sake of skin or sport. The rest of the Tiger and Lion, etc, get wasted.
If I had the money and the time, I would buy as much land as I could and have all the Tigers and Lions there.
Next time you see a Lion/Tiger throw, or any kind of animal fur, just remember that animal has probably been chased down for miles, stabbed and shot to death, and had its skin stripped off it and left for nothing. Probably a father/mother to cubs, and now those cubs are being sold off as pets. And then when they're older and the owner can't control it, they'll have it killed and it will be another piece of possession.
No one can say, that looking at this photo, they don't feel emotional.
