I cant believe people still go to the tiger temple, no animal lover would go there,these are wild animals, as usual tourists visit there all so they can have a picture taken with one, So sad!.

Have you actually been to the Tiger Temple balamuti12?





These tigers are not wild as they were raised from cubs at the temple and have always been around people. If the temple hadn鈥檛 done this, then in all likelihood they would have died. People bring them to the temple for rescue. Of course it would be preferable if they lived in the wild, but this is the reality of the world we live in.





The whole idea of Buddhist monks doing something cruel goes against what they believe in and certainly wouldn鈥檛 help their karma.





It is a unique experience and the tigers did seem well looked after. They are trying to raise money to improve the space for the tigers too.





My only problem with it was too many visitors and, yes, I know that means I was part of the problem. I think they will have to limit numbers soon.




All of my Thai friends plead with people not to go there because of this reason!,its a tourist trap and yes they ARE WILD STILL WILD ANIMALS!.
