Rare white tiger mauls Japanese zookeeper to death

A zoo keeper died after being beaten by an unusual white tiger in a zoo in southwestern Japan.

Since one of the four white tigers was kept at Hirakawa Zoo in Kagoshima City, Oshika Akira announced his death after arriving at the hospital on Monday evening.

According to Kyodo News, a 40-year-old man turned out to have collapsed and bleeding from his neck by a colleague on the wall of a tiger.

When the rescue team and the police arrived, the tiger, which was considered to be responsible for the attack, was calm with a sedative gun. There is no immediate news about the condition. The victim's family requested to stay alive

The police began to investigate how the White Tiger public zoo was opened in 1972

Takuro Chusuo, zoo executive officer, told AFP: "Since the family who lost the loved one has asked us to do so, we will continue to kill without killing the rick. In this case," Changzi added

In March, a woman worker at Ueno Zoo in Tokyo was injured when the gorilla chewed her right arm. According to the report, the attack occurred when she escorted the gorilla from her public exhibition hall into her living space, which led to an investigation of how close her contacts are with her.

In May 2017, entered the paddock where the tiger worked, in a "strange accident" painted by the zoo staff, Rosakin parked in Hammerton Zoo in Cambridgeshire, England in May 2017.

Television moderator and naturalist Steve Backshall said that after the king's death, the captured tiger lives alone in the wild, living alone, hunting and the like may have unnecessary pressure.

"In the wild they have a huge family range and rarely come into contact with other tigers," Backshall told the BBC. "In the case of captivity, they are often kept in relatively small fences along with other tigers, which there is no doubt that this may put artificial pressure on the closed group.

"The area of ​​the wild tiger may exceed 1,500 square miles (3,885 square kilometers) - obviously you may not have a zoo of this size."

"The real knowledge is different from ordinary knowledge, I was with a farmer who was beaten up by a tiger, everyone shocked when someone said the tiger messed up the people in the area.However, Like farmers, this farmer opposes him, everyone knows a tiger, but he does not have real knowledge because they really do not know whether it is wrong or not, Keep doing what you know that you should not do it, they will not do it if they really know "(quoted from Ivanhoe 2000)

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 indications such as swaying back and forth and to the right and left, constant combing, pacing, self-destructive behavior including refusal to eat and self-injurious behavior.

White tiger is very rare and can only be seen in the zoo. Today, there are about 30-90 white tigers in the USA. The white tiger is not another tiger, they are just white Bengal tigers. They are also not bleaching; they have black streaked blue eyes, pink nose and creamy white fur. Men grow to about 105-125 inches and women grow to about 95-105 inches. The tail tail is only 3 to 4 feet long. The weight of the male tiger was 419-569 pounds. Women are slightly lighter, between 221 and 353 pounds
