| Mom to Marty & Maddie Donating Member  |  White Tigers-Tragedy! I never knew how terrible the breeding of white tigers was until I randomly stumbled across a youtube video tonight. I just wanted to pass this information along because it really touched me and I think the more people who know about it, the better! Here's what the Big Cat Rescue has to say about it: http://www.bigcatrescue.org/white_tigers.htm It's horrible how badly animals are treated, just to make a profit!   |

| Wow. I had no idea. I feel so bad now for even appreciating their beauty. Because their beauty wasn't their idea. It was forced upon them at the expense of so many of their brothers and sisters. Thanks for sharing.

| Mom to Marty & Maddie Donating Member | Here's another video that explains it a little more. Reminds me of bad yorkie breeders who don't care about the health of the puppies, only getting a specific color, size, etc. Grr... |

| I had no idea either until I heard about it on the radio recently.  They were also talking about the tigers and other animals at the zoos...how many of them are inbred. Apparently, circus animals are treated cruely and are abused horribly. The guy on the radio who was talking about it said that once he finished his investigation into all this, it made him never want to take his children to the circus again.

| I think it's terrible that they inbreed them so much. I don't understand how anyone could be so heartless to an animal. |
