The zoo of Beijing made a public announcement soon after the video went viral and people across the world poured in their concerns.

One of the staff members also added that they have never seen such behavior from any of the animals that have stayed in their zoo earlier.

Proper Care & Counselling For Animals

The zookeeper has further added that they have provided all the necessary toys and food appropriate for tigers along with a big open space. The Bengal tiger is also receiving behavior training in order to help him get back to his normal state as soon as possible.

The video was very disturbing for numerous animal lovers who seemed appalled by it. Many animal rights groups demanded better treatment and facilities for animals that will help in retaining their normal state more easily.

Zoon usually plays a key role in keeping the balance in nature and fulfilling many important environmental functions. However, many animal rights groups repeatedly attacked zoos for their insensitive and maltreatment towards the animals. Many have also stated that such anomalous behavior can be expected from the animals who have stayed in zoos for a longer period of time.

Zoos are normally seen as ‘collections’ of several interesting animals and bringing them together under one shelter. However, PETA had mentioned that this strange behavior by this depressed tiger had nothing to do with the environment.
