Video from troubled zoo takes aim at tiger cub photo shoots

摘要

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals today released undercover video footage of mishandled tiger cubs at a Florida zoo that the animal welfare group is suing for alleged Endangered Species Act violations. If PETA succeeds in convincing the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida that the treatment of tigers at Dade City's Wild Things Inc. constitutes illegal harm of the ESA-protected cats, the group believes the case could have a major impact on zoos across the country that feature photo shoots with baby tigers and other newborn endangered species.
