Fate of Tigers

Sometimes I think that people who are supposed to or predict themselves as, they know everything about, with what they are related to, are mostly wrong in their assumptions.
Regarding this I want to tell a fact which I have noticed few days back having a holiday spending some time in a circus near our locality. All of you must know that there are so many things to watch in a circus and the first thing that will come in our mind hearing the names of a circus are the animal shows. The shows that are done with the animals like tigers, elephants, horses and others, but the most attractive are the tiger show. Everybody wants to see this part that how these flesh eaters do their tricks with a human being and everyone continue their eagerness to know how a human being can train a tiger that are the most dangerous carnivorous animal in today’s world.

Now let’s come to the story where I realized that people who train their animals in the circus mostly are not aware of the facts of the animal nature, with whom they are exactly dealing with. Before starting the show, the trainer told us some words about the particular tiger with which he was organizing the show and also about the natures of these kinds of endangered species. The trainer was really pretending to be well known about the natural facts of the tigers, which in my view was really a blunder and total non sense.

He told :
=======
1. The tiger does not have a good memory.
2. They are not intelligent. They cannot memorize anything but whatever they does is because of their instinct. (In this special term, according to knowledge that I have gained by making studies on the tigers behavior is that, in reality they are quiet intelligent animals and posses a good memory. )
3. Tigers are not afraid of fire. (This is nothing but a flat lie because there is nobody, no living being who cannot get frightened of the fire. Even human beings who discovered fire are also afraid of it, so how can be a tiger will not get frightened of the fire? Is this really possible?)
Even one thing which I noticed was the trainer was really a hard core professional and did not have any sort of closeness or intimacy with the tiger but he tried to show the audience that how much loyal is the tiger to him.
In my view, people who generally pet the animal, no matter which animal he/she is bringing up or raring should pose an intimacy and lovable relationship with that animal. Without love no animal can be treated well or trained well. Animals are not machines that anybody will program them according to their will.
But I think the trainer does not have any love for the tiger. Humorously I found that the tiger was not at all listing to the command of her master. It was quiet unnatural. Do you know when does this happen?


Answer:
======
When the animal is not properly fed or either they get ignorance from their trainer.
Instead of that I found a person at the back side of the tent was actually showing affection to the tiger before the beginning of the show. What will you say about this?
Now a day, it is really good that in some countries shows with animals in the circus are banned by the government.
There are only few tigers left in the world. It is said that before there were 100000 populations of tigers in the whole world which have now came down to 6000. Still people are making deals with their skin and doing illegal hunting as well as shows with them. Every year in the countries like India 2 or 3 cases about the tigers at least are noticed, either they become victims of poachers or does not get proper care from the forest department. Every year it is been seeing in the news paper that the tigers die due to the medical negligence of the forest veterinary department.
What is this? These tigers are also living beings. What did they do to get such a careless treatment from the human beings? Just think, if humans are taught like this then what will happen? Will ever human being understand this?
