"There are far more tigers residing in america than elsewhere on the planet. Estimates vary from 10,000 to 15,000 creatures. In comparison, professionals think that you will find for the most part 7,000 tigers residing in the wild worldwide." http://www.spiegel.de/international/...453035,00.html When wild populations are experiencing a flat gene swimming and low numbers, It's very sickening, 10,000 animals are being trained and kept in cages for wealthy Americans.

It's not only a issue of animal cruelty, when the owners are infected they get what they deserve, however the preservation of a whole species necessary to it's environment. Several are most likely compounds of various subspecies, ruining a large number of years of development and genetic isolation (and probable future speciation). These compounds also provide issues with illness and retardation, indicating they'll probably not survive if introduced back to the wild (similar to the mass-bred 'white tigers ').
