About:Siberian Tiger Park

There is a park in Harbin, maybe not his one, but it is possible, that is not actually what it appears to be. It's a farm. A tiger farm, where they raise the tigers for body parts and medicines. Be careful!! Don't go to a tiger farm, you're not helping the tigers, you're hindering them!

Please get your facts straight, there are currently around 400 wild Siberians, 20 in China, if there was a farm raising them for slaughter, you surely will not know about it as it will be hardcore black market stuff because any trade involving the Siberian tiger at the age can result in prosecution. Though I am sure it still happens, it is definitely not publicized and it is not this park.

Yeah cause swamping the black market with farmed tiger parts to stop the poaching of wild tigers is a bad thing...

Tigers breed like rabbits in captivity, parks/farms like this are one of the best things that can be done for stopping the poaching of extremely endangered wild tiger populations. The demand for tiger parts is deeply rooted in Chinese culture and will not go away, therefore the main focus of conservation efforts should be to devalue black market poached items.

Think about what you're complaining about first, difficult conservation situations require creative solutions
