Rare White Tiger Kills Zookeeper in Japan

Hong - his supervisor said that Tuesday the Japanese zoo owner died after being beaten by a rare white tiger

According to the Kyodo news agency, Zoological Akira of the zoo administrator was found to bleed from the cage at Hirakawa Zoo in the southern part of Kagoshima City on Monday night.

A five-year old male tiger, Riku died Mr. Furst and the rescue workers calmed them. Mr. Furuso, 40 years old, was later declared to have died in the hospital

Manga director Akinori Ishido told reporters Tuesday that no one has participated in this episode.

Kyodo News reported on the 22nd that police are investigating ways the zoo takes care of Riku and the other three white tigers. According to the news agency, the staff was planning to move the rice from the display cage to the bedroom during the attack.

Mr. Ishii told reporters that staff were not allowed to be housed in a cage of dangerous animals, but in this case obviously this rule was broken and the Asahi newspaper reported.

According to the website, this zoo opened in 1972 and had over 1000 kinds of animals such as koala, polar bear, red panda etc. According to Kyodo News, White Tiger's Riku is about 6 feet long and weighs about 375 pounds - about the same as Sumo wrestlers.

According to Kyodo News, Hirakawa Zoo opened on Tuesday, but access to the area near the tiger's exhibition area was restricted.

In Japan, for example, in 2008, Japan reported that the tiger of Siberia attacked and killed Ayuto Ito, a breeding clerk who cleaned the cage at a zoo in Kyoto. He died with broken neck

Police later said they believed that Mr. Ito could not properly close the door of the cage by seducing the inner chicken to drive the tiger into the next cage.

According to Wildcat Sanctuary, Minnesota's large cat protection facility, white tiger is Bengal tiger, it is not bleaching or independent species. These are generated when two Bengal tigers with recessive genes controlling coat color propagate.

White tiger is a standard staple in circus performance. These "rare" tigers have acquired this exclusive title for certain genetic defects. In fact, white tigers can not be found in the wild, but they can breed only by close relatives. Genetic defects causing white coats also cause white tigers to cross their eyes and they also tend to cause health problems and other harmful defects. The mental stress and frustration exhibited by captured circus animals is called "crawl glass". As a result of being deprived of the natural environment, behavior and irritation, animals began to mentally close in response to overwhelming pressure. This is reflected in many abnormal physical displays such as swaying back and forth and right and left, constant combing, pacing, self-destructive behavior including refusal of feeding and self-injurious behavior.

In the last century, I saw a white tiger over the wild dozen. In the last century, all Bengal tigers were mercilessly killed without any form of permission or law enforcement. People think that killing white tiger will give a direct soul. As a result, the population of the Bengal tiger has decreased from 40,00 to 1,800. White Tiger was born out of the usual Bengal tiger, so White Tiger rarely (or even more) appeared at birth. The killing of this tiger is currently prohibited, and the decline is stopped. Since White Tiger underwent many inbreeding, more white tigers were born.
