Tiger Temple Zoo to open!
 

I is with much regret that I see Thailand is to take yet another giant step backwards in the battle against animal exploitation and wildlife conservation.

?Tiger Temple? to Reopen as Tiger Zoo

Those of us who love Thailand and love animals think it is nothing short of appalling.

How very, very sad. Thanks for letting us know.

I think that if you compare posts on this and other Thailand tourist sites, you will notice a sea-change in many people's attitude to wildlife and conservation in the kingdom. Thy are more aware for th disgraceful record Thailand has on this issue. - Social media works!!

however the opening of the "zoo" - highlights further how animal welfare and conservation laws within Thailand are to little too ineffective and too late.

International shame is probably the only way effective change will happen in a country where places like this are legal, elephants have less rights than pickup trucks and millions of people are still prepared to pay for a selfie with some poor exploited creature.

it is the self-appointed elite that need to take heed - they are ultimately responsible for Thailand being a hub of animal exploitation.
