The tragedy of the tiger
Where do tigers live? North-eastern China, the India subcontinent,and the Russian Far East are what conservationists or anyone with a general interest in the animal world might think of,but New Jersey ,in the United States isn't a place that springs to mind.
Yet 24 Bengal tigers were recently removed from a private residence where they had been living in cramped and filthy conditions.
They were relocated to the Wild Animals Orphanage in Texas,which has a regular intake of exotic animals that owners cannot look after or that they've simply abandoned.
Other animals are not so lucky.
They are often destroyed when they attack the people "taking care of" them or unlucky random strangers when they escape.
In the last five years alone,ten fatalities have occurred.
And here is a statistic that may astound you: there are estimated to be fewer than 5,000 tigers existing in the wild around the would, yet close to 10,000 big cats of various species are believed to be living in basements, back yards, and sheds across the United States.
