Walking Tigers through the park and amongst patrons while they pet the tigers as they walk by is insane in Australia. The 2 trainers wouldn't be able to stop any of those tigers from killing them and many, many patrons. That is ludicrous and dangerous. Keeping them in cages and taking them for "walks" twice a week is not a substitute for giving them a large realistic area to live in when not being made to do tricks. Those guys didn't appear extremely professional in the way they interacted with the cats in the water and you could tell the one guy was still pissed off at Sultan for biting him. He didn't seem like he was as forgiving as his words stated. Hey, he chose this line of work and knows the possibilities of danger that come with it. The guy in Oregon is purely only about business. I think he is good to his animals but they appear to live in small environments, caged and not in a semi-realistic setting for them to have some space. The Asian place has the cats living in cement and steel, small cage environments. At least the Tigers there allowed the handler to actually help them birth their cubs so there is an apparent trust factor in that case but the overall conditions are still that of cement and steel. The guy is Russia seems like he loves his cats but his is a throwback to Tigers living in cages year round and trained and used solely for commercial purposes. They seem to have the absolute worst lives of all the cats we saw in this video. I don't think he is intentionally mean to his Tigers, it just seems as though he is from the old era in which these animals are kept in cages and trained to do tricks, nothing more than that. If anyone thinks that the Tigers are fearful of the "wooden" stick used in his act, it is because when training it is not just a plain, smooth wooden stick that they are kept in line with. The one used during performances looks like the training stick which can be painful to the animals and therefore scares them into submission. This is the old way of the circus. We may no longer see the whip and chair and pistol but those Tigers aren't afraid of a simple wooden stick either. How about we stop poachers and stop encroaching on all the lands and stop killing them for some bulls--t, voodoo style medicine that isn't medicine at all and let them live free?
It’s dangerous but not as much as you’re saying - they might kill a person accidentally if they turn their backs or something like that and flip the prey drive, but they’re not going to summarily kill numerous patrons like a marauding terminator or something.
@@HkFinn83 Even one person is too much, it could be a child. Sometimes, once an animal gets sick and tired of being restrained and imprisoned they go nuts. They just might go on a killing spree against as many humans as possible. Tigers are huge, powerful and extremely dangerous. As you even stated, if someone turns their back on the tiger, they just might get attacked and probably killed.
Sekekama I noticed that. When he was walking the tigers thru the woods and that puddle was there and the Tiger hopped over it. They are smart animals and didn’t want to get dirty. 😂 Clean 🧼 Tiger 🐅
Here are the answers to the three "chilling questions" asked at the top of this cheap documentary: 1) Are all tigers potential killers? Yes. 2) Can they be tamed? No. 3) Are even the tamest tigers just very well-trained? 2) makes 3) redundant. They're the wrong questions. It is in the nature of a tiger to prey upon animals, so by definition the answer to 1) is yes. A tiger will kill and eat a human because humans are animals and a potential food source. As the only species that has left the food chain, it's _our_ responsibility to ensure we're not food. There is _no circumstance_ in which a human being killed by a tiger is the tiger's fault. It's all on us.
I think i can picture why tigers kill us because humans don’t understand the wild and keep them in a place were these people should be/ Captivity a thing you should never build because no one cares about animals lives not only do i hate it when people put animals in captivity but I also hate when people Think IT’S FUN KILLING ANIMALS the Nerve
Most, if not all, humans are potential killers given the right circumstances. Humans kill for pleasure and ego while animals kill for food or survival.
The nice thing about tigers is they act like housecats, the problem is its freaking tiger, 400lbs + of killing tools: thick skin, muscle, claws, fangs(mouth claws) and really powerful scissor teeth at the back. A tiger will jump bite and swat at you just like a housecat, and probably send you to the hospital.
Oh my God..at about 5 minutes in I see a tiger walking on a leash among a bunch of kids and their parents running after and petting the tiger. Holy Christ, what am I seeing.
What's strange is why humans like to watch these impressive animals do this kind of tricks that a small dog can do. To me it's far more exciting to learn how they live in their natural habitat.
Especially after learning what I know about wild animals. Anyone wanting one should learn about the animal before allowing one to live on property caged up. It's sad to see we as americans take advantage of every right there is no matter the safety to others or concern for the animal. It hurts me to see beautiful animals locked up when they should be left alone period. If you can't do good for the animal don't get one especially when you can't take care of yourself. How stupid. Having the nerve to tell people don't worry about your safety I'm in control yeah in control alright a while back that same person was killed by a bite to the neck and he died but before that , one of his cats bit a kid on the leg because the kid fell taking a picture just think if the kid was attacked in the same way the owner was how sad when his attorney had the law over turned because he was rich I'm already knowing money don't care about who lives or dies. but who wins and he blamed the kid for falling. All I know is these rights we have, there's no law to them as if people are going to act right and be accountable for the things they do and this is serious shit. So much love for animals but who cares enough to make sure.
@Wahyu Suryaningpraja peoples have to find something else to earn money, not on the alienation and the destruction of noble animals. This as to see with ignorance and poverty
I have a couple of cats and my male cat, although he's all loving and fluffy, and cuddly. If he doesn't like something, he will certainly let me know. With a hiss, sometimes a growl, you never know, well big cats are no different, imagine having one of those great beasts, hissing and growling at you, you might then become afraid and without realising it start acting like prey, and well then it's just goodnight all, and end of story!
There is not a lot of 'wild' to return large predators to. Most land suitable to support large predators is full almost to capacity with predators, and there is not a lot of safe and suitable land for the animals to migrate to.
are you mad they are not puppies if they were treated any way badly they would kill their keepers they have them since cubs and put a lot of care into them thats why they can get so close
This documentary is great and very educative. All these trainers know the moods of the tiger but still they taking huge risks. A growl itself can be very intimidating as we discovered in our trip to the forests of Tadoba where we had a close encounter with Junior Matkasur. We were lucky to film it.
Yup they are majestic when you see them in their natural habitat when they hunt you feel the power of this magnificent animal india is the only place amongst few places where you can see bengal tiger and Indian gir lion in natural habitat rest Chinese border close to Russia have siberian tiger in natural habitat I always wanted to keep one but right now it is banned in our country India to keep a tiger cub but one can come to jim Corbett park india to watch these amazing animals and have a nice time out there....
These poor animals it’s so sad I used to love these shows but then find out really what is happening in the world and with tigers and lions we are running out of them in the wild. These people should be ashamed they belong to be in a beautiful place to live out their life
@@ridwanhusainishraq it has natural aggression triggers. Ask these trainers what happens when they turn their backs. Their prey drive immediately turns on.
@@goldeternal true!Although all of them are different personality which may be the most important thing determining whether you can live with one and be safe or not!In my family there lived a Siberian tiger for almost entirely all his life and was probably the best personality possible:he never attacked any human being in his 19 years long life,and this was actually visible since the very first time grandad seen him when he was 3 months old cub:Neron really chosen him and the thing was that in fact until the hour when he took little Neron home he was never thinking about ever keeping such animals,and also Neron was the first ever tiger cub he ever seen and the first big cat he ever touched!And the thing was that he was not alone:he was one of three siblings,and he had a brother and sister who were completely different personalities!So his sister was somewhat lazy and didn't react at any way to cuddling her and seemed like didn't care about anything around her while Neron didn't let grandad go and showed his attraction as well as further in his life!And the third sibling-Neron's brother was an opposite to him:that one was already sitting in a separate basket from the others because he was furious both to his brother and sister and cuddling him meant losing a finger or getting clawed plus anyway being hissed at and roared at,as he was very ferocious-to the point where they couldn't keep that one in the zoo because he was roaring at anyone coming near his enclosure and mainly he was charging at everyone so viciously that after few days he broke one of his canines,lost two claws and fractured a bone in his paw just by hitting the fence!And as for him-he was released in the wild and seems like at least for some time was doing well until he finally made humans he hated that much to lose his trail.. So all of them are the same different from each other as we are!By the way Neron the same time was even taught to hunt local wildlife in nearby forests and grandad regularly went to hunting trips with him,and Neron was nearly all the time fed with meat from his own kills that he was taught to drag home in order to preserve leftovers and feed him afterwards!And still he never turned on his human family which he loved and which loved him,living in their house and on property around it-like a house cat,although not just big for a cat or whatever-he was actually huge even for his kind-Siberians rarely grow that huge-over 380 kilograms-close to the record of weight set at 425 kilograms by Jaipur!And that is obvious that the number of wildlife that he tackled and sometimes thorn apart during his life was huge!And for some reason there were 3 animals that were somewhat loathed by him(or probably adored but only as meal)-the first were rabbits that he started training on and always regarded them as the best treat-but was really cruel to them,as his favourite thing that he frequently did with them was skinning them alive and instead of eating or killing just waiting for those to die!A-secondly for obvious reasons he loathed dogs and killed at least two of them when both he and his family got mad with those barking non-stop beginning at 7:00 A.M till 11:00 P.M. and so one day after warning their owners that if they don't make their dogs shut up in next day than Neron will make it-and the next day those went silent forever!And the third animal that he was always surprisingly deliberately chasing and methodically killing were bobcat and/or lynx that for some reason were in first four years of his life completely wiped out everywhere he was taken on hunting trips:he really sometimes climbed trees that only leopards would otherwise dare climbing to catch those poor cats and so grandad was always worried when he already weighted more than quarter of a tonne but still was desperate to get those cats at all costs:once Neron even fell from a pine tree and broke his paw but somehow as he broke the branch on which that lynx was sitting-he immediately chased and killed it with a broken paw which led to the surgery because he chased it on all four of them through immense pain..And the same time was so human friendly!
I like Big cat rescues approach to their Wild Cats. No/minimal physical contact, meat on stick reward, huge multi sealable room enclosures, no breeding, tons of fun non contact enrichment, public education, and well cared for cats. Heck they even took in a blind dying old female cougar. They thought she had a few weeks but with their care she had the best few months of her life. They only take in wild cats if the owners 100% surrender the cat and signs a legal agreement never to own an exotic cat again...or get sued. They educate the public and tell them wild cats, even the little ones, make bad pets. Some of the cats rescue had tear jerking back stories. They give the best care possible, unless the cats life will just be painful and they humane euthanize the cat. But they do surgeries, rehab, and physical therapy for the ones they can. They are a recognized rehab place for injured and orphaned Bob Cats and have successfully returned some to the wild.
It's like being innocent in prison during the old chain gang days. Caged except for tightly controlled outside time and the hard labor someone else gets rich on.
strong belief -- Your comprehension skill set is a few sandwiches short of a picnic my friend. I'm talking like wild animals should be wild animals IN the wild and OUT of cages. Nature is violent sure, but it's not malicious. They may kill for a living but we kidnap the living for entertainment and money. malicious Sorry if that sounds mean.
Lynn Kayee lol trust me your not offending me. I think it's comedy- humorous -make someone laugh? The View you have. Apples and oranges kid I'm sorry I don't mean to come off malicious
Lynn Kayee people don't do it for the money. Thats what I don't get about your comprehention ! Think about how these people risk there lives out there? You'll never get it.
strong belief - Oh, I absolutely think of the people who risk their lives and I don't want them hurt. But make no mistake - the moment you take animals who build dominance from aggression (sometimes very very little, sometimes it's deadly) and train them for an audience it is either money or just wanting power that is the motive. If they don't want money, they should buy a sanctuary. As you said, they risk their lives but they choose it. They choose to do the routine. They choose what the animals does. They risk that animals life because the animal might have a bad day and go off maybe with an audience around. They have NO choice. I'm not a person who thinks ALL captivity is bad. I don't think playing with them is necessarily bad. But come on, it's about money when you do a routine and their entire life revolves around that performance.
That female, the Tigress at the end, must trust him to jump through those paper hoops, she doesn't even put her paws out in front of her face, which would be a totally natural reflex action for anyone, man or beast, she just carries straight on with the jump, and goes through those hoops in one smooth movement. That is trust on her part.
They will always bite. They always want to bite or suck onto something. They have 2 kinds of bite, one is an actual bite and the other is a normal bite.
Big cats are no different to little domestic cats but the size determines how badly injured you can get! My cat will be loving and then all of a sudden in a bad mood whip around and bite or whack me with her paw. Imagine if she were the same size as a tiger! They get fed up for the slightest reason sometimes. You have to be very respectful of cats especially when that size. You can never fully trust them.🐯
@@coop-nr6nm lol, yeah, even if you reintroduced them gradually w/ a semi open enclosure, they'd still run up to humans and ask for food and misunderstandings would occur
Siberian male tigers grow up to 900 pounds (3 times the size of Sultan). Even a 180 pound leopard can dominate and do anything to a person, so imagine what a tiger than can take down a fully grown male gar, weighing a tone can do a person weighing 10% of that.
Well only in captivity. The largest alleged wild Siberian tiger was 847 lbs, and that's only alleged. It is exceptionally rare to find wild tigers that are 800 lbs let alone 900. Nowadays finding an 800 lbs tiger is like finding an 8 ft tall human, extremely rare, as the larger lines have been poached out. The usual maximum weight for a Siberian tiger is around 650 lbs, for males the range is 350-650 lbs. In captivity the biggest recorded reached just over 1,000 lbs due to being cage fat and living a bit longer than they could in the wild, as tigers keep growing throughout their life, sideways that is ;) They keep putting on weight.
Tigers should be left alone in there own environment, and humans should mind there own business and leave them alone, man is the worst animal on planet earth,
William Lane when people keep destroying the wild animals land wtf is suppose to happen its horrible if you ask me but what else besides conservation to save their species as long as they aren’t being poached I do dislike the training animals to do tricks just leave them in a really big enclosure to live out their lives try to give em the best life possible since you can’t give em their jungle habitat they deserve
That doesnt happen in their own environment. Keep in mind there are many villages in india where tigers are endemic and the villages themselves kill them bc tigers target their animals.
@Sara Ford So what are you saying? Villagers should go City and leave their land and home? Not everyone have the same economic healty like you karen. Villagers live in Village because of not they are liking it, because they have no other choice. They don't have enough money to live in Cities or towns.
That Hollywood trainer “I was attracted to the cats, I feel like I could help them, I feel like i could understand them’- I,I,I...Damn shame they cannot leave these F animals alone! Beauty is a blessing & a curse, especially in regards to the tigers. 😔💕
8:57 imagine you go have a walk and see those freaks walking there with tigers ... animals they could never hold back. Those "trainers" don't love the tigers, else they would set them free. They are selfish and greedy psychopaths only for money they do this, no love, no passion. If you love set them free ... you don't do ... you don't love
U r an animal if you wish. Animals are on this planet to serve us. They are inferior to us. The opposite of what leftist ideology has brainwashed you into believing.
Adam Eustachy what does politics have to do with this? We are part of the animal kingdom, every animal is different to each other and we are just a lot smarter. But obviously we can make stupid decisions like this documentary
@@rakbuck5378 I'll answer for him, Absolutely nothing. I'm actually an independent. As far as believing in evolution, hence the liberal reference, no I do not believe we evolved from apes. We as humans are mammals and for classification we are considered an animal. I know that the Bible does reference the use of lower animals for food ect.. As far as do whatever we want? Free will is something that differentiate us from other animals, its also what's caused so much destruction in the world. I will never understand why extremist of any kind always seem so angry. Not to mention how boring this world would be if everybody believed and thought exactly the same. Very boring in my opinion.
Stay at Home Cichlid Mom thanks for sharing your opinion, i agree that we are different and i think we should care for other animals unlike they do in this documentary
Much respect for these tiger keepers! I love the tiger's moany meows ~.~ Clearly these cats are healthy and completely happy with their humans. This type of work is very hopeful for future efforts in preserving endangered species.
Maudi. Yeh you can't really Tame any cat. One of my kittys scratched me very lightly this morning because she didn't wanna be picked up, but it was nothing really, and she nuzzled against me just as soon as I put her down. I mean imagine if that was a tiger? I'd have a hell of a wound on my hand, and I would have to have stitches and antibiotics, and all sorts, and you often get a scratch when you're just playing or they're wound up or anything, just transfer that to Tiger or Lion, any big cat and you're screwed!
This was amazing. These beautiful, powerful Tigers are spellbinding! I have never seen anything like this performance. The trainer was unfortunately necessary to bring this about.
I think the Russian Trainer had the most Respect for his Tigers. He and the old Tigress had a rare mutual respect for each other, hence the double paper hoop trick.
Yea! I saw that respect especially when the Russian trainer started hitting " the old tiger cause she bit another OLD TIGER!..if u look close he dont think he just hits he has a reflex not a reaction..
No trainer has respect for the wild animals they train. It's not natural for them to be put on display in society, training them to do tricks in the first place shows a huge lack of respect. You can tell the tigers hate it too, they're just scared by whatever he does to them during practice.
I think the tiger is the most amazing wildcat in the world cause they known to have muscles and the characteristic stripes but now tigers are also known to have different color mutations from the common orange to the rare black color no matter what color mutation the tiger have I still think they amazing animals the white tiger origin goes back to first white tiger ever found in the wild in the 1950s all subspecies of tiger is amazing even though 3 subspecies became extinct it’s amazing you can get the facts I noticed that sultan has his color form his mother Rama and his sister Sita has the golden color and Mohan and his son Taj are the white tigers in the family of two orange tigers two golden tiger and two white tigers
@@jonclarkson5911 This person has every right to express their feelings and opinions about these captive Tigers!!! I don't like this s*** either!!! This is the exploitation of threatened and endangered species for profit!!!!! Apparently this is just fine with you!!!!!
I found this documentary interesting. To the vitriol from people complaining of their "abuse" - I agree that tigers belong in the wild. However, we have to be pragmatic. What captivity provides to these individuals is protection. They would be shot if they encroached on human territory, or killed for their fur. Tigers are endangered. We need to sustain a captive population so that if they go extinct in the wild they aren't gone forever. This also brings people closer to these beautiful animals and shows them in a different light, so that maybe more people learn to respect them. The trainers here clearly care deeply about the tigers and provide them with good care. Their lives are much easier and filled with far less peril than in the wild.
Respect for big cats, having them perform in front of crowds is wrong. Ok, tigers are an endangered species but surely they're better off in sanctuaries with breeding programs which in the end put these beautiful creatures back into their natural environment.
The wild Siberian Tiger population has been on the rise for years now it is probobly well over 500 by now. And if they cant survive without human husbandry then put them in a sanctuary and admire them from afar. They should not be made to do tricks for yuppie scum nor should they have to be doped up just so some prick can pet them.
@Benjamin Goodlich dumbass? I'm not sorry for not trying to be some kind of demi-god pretending I know everythingwhile I don''t. I' m not afraid to say I'll go to bed everyday smarter than I was when I woke up in the morning.. sheesh.. Nobody's perfect, I'm NOT a Nobody...
Wow watching in 2018 and he's the top tiger trainer and treating them that way shame on you. Those are beautiful creatures should be left in the wild or on a sanctuary
Sending these cats back into the wild with no survival skills which is taught by the mother is also cruel.These big cats are born to kill but they have to be shown how to do it.Without it they won't last long.
nigel button - with each passing year, there will be less land and therefore less of these predators to roam in them. It has been surmised that in 10 to 20 yrs most of these animals may be extinct or otherwise unless kept in zoos or private parks/domain. My friend, you better get used to it, or maybe you, yourself can keep one in your own house to breed. Therefore, accept, leave & live on !!!
23:30. Cruel to separate babies from mom like this, left to scream a métal cage... All done so the mother goes back in heat, a breeding machine, nothing more :(
Tigers, lions or any other animal shouldn’t be in a circus…yea they’re beautiful and I’m pretty sure everyone wants to see it buhh dats wrong we should protect them not keep them in cages they should be free… there’s a lot more dat I wanna say buhh it’s gonna take years to say it all, just let them go
24:00 "some of that weight gain comes from bottle feeding"... why don't they just leave them with the mother? They'd gain even more, and in a healthier way!
The tiger cubs have very thick skin, that's not random... it comes from tiger mothers kicking the tiger cubs away from nursing while teething. Evolution takes over and only the most durable cubs survive. So, you're right, you can
No, it's to do what is so obvious in this video. Fear based learning. You can see their ears are back and are swatting and roaring as a defense. How people at the show cheer and all are blind to cat psychology are so fucking stupid. Along with the show and the photo session, they are drugged enough that they don't respond to people. It is horrible how the world is
So many virtue signaling, pompous, holier than thou, self hating people in this comment section. These cats aren't being beaten and abused. They're healthy and they seem quite happy. Who are any of you to say that they aren't? Every last one of these people on this film know the risk that they are taking and feel that it's worth it. I don't agree with the small cages, but this is just a clip of part of their days. Quite frankly as long as they're being taken care of and not abused, it's none of anybody's business if someone wants to have and work with exotic animals or any animals for that matter.
Taming Lion is more hard if you have any experience with big cats.they want to be dominant,more possessive towards their food and female mate.they can bite you anytime because of hyper agression
I’m not surprised that trainer got bit. He’s running around in that pool like prey 11:35. Only a matter of time. So sad to see these animals in captivity. I always cheer when the animal gets fed up and mauls someone. I probably shouldn’t admit that... lol
My house cat is a moody sh!t, no way I would trust him as a pet if he weighed more than me...Cats do as they please and occasionally it pleases its owners but thats about as far as 'control' over cats go..
My cat is the most loving, smart and endearing pet I’ve ever known. She just wants to be held and cuddled all the time. I’d definitely trust her if she were big... She’s actually part bobcat.
Nope, when a human and cat have mutual love and respect (when the human truly loves the cat) they will definitely gain a connection, at least that’s what happened for me
Yeah, real taming is about getting the trust of an adult wild animal who doesn't trust you or even wants to kill you. It's a completely different story. In Avatar movie there's a part about taming a mountain banshee, a very good example.
Tigers are not supposed to be on chains or in a circus. We must see things in a different light. We need to conserve not make captive. This is no way to treat an endangered and majestic animal. For all the platitudes and excuses this is about making profit.
I think its terrible that all these tigers are bred and kept in captivity and will never really be free, that's so sad to know. ( and all for human entertainment).
lazyloco19 why would you tell someone you don't even know to shut up ? and if you read the other comments I'm not the only one who thinks this either !
The hardest bit is watching the tiger cubs being used for photo ops-- baby tigers are still wee babies, and all babies need to sleep. Not only is it unbearably sad, it is so very wrong on so many levels. I get incredibly angry (hence my, in this instance especially, oh so appropriate name) at the brutal and completely unnecessarily rough way the poor wee baby cubs are handled and subsequently kept awake-- all in the name of god-money, of course. I am so sad. So bloody angry as well. Grrrr. Aye, I am indeed an angry cat!! 💕 >^. .^< 💕
tigers are the most beautiful creation of mother nature, they need to be respected deeply in a spiritual way, and training them by bending them to our will is not the way to do it. please watch videos of 'khairi' here on y/t....she was never trained or tamed but nevertheless very affectionate and loving. also,watch how billy arjun singh relates to wild tigers and a leopard, purely out of love, and no agenda. i believe that animals are profoundly intuitive and know when they're being exploited even if it's done in a pampering and friendly way.
If these "trainers" claim they know so much about these tigers, then get some common sense and not treat them like pets. They're WILD ANIMALS!!! If you really are concerned about saving the breed, put money towards a wildlife sanctuary let the tigers be the wild animals that they are, and don't keep them for your own entertainment. I mean seriously, if these "trainers" knew anything at all, they wouldn't take tigers for "walks" in public and let strangers pet the tigers. That's just plain INSANITY!!! If any of these tigers were to bite,attack,etc. the "trainers", then I don't blame the tigers because the "trainers" deserve it!! There's no such thing as "taming a wild animal"!
"نادر الی راحمان They would die in the wild, so they need to be in captivity, in this case." who knows, have you testet it? and dying in the wild is better than in captivity or ?

It’s all projection of human emotions onto an animal that simply doesn’t experience life in the same way we do. Make no mistake - your pet cat would summarily kill you if it could. It’s the same with these creatures, they have nothing even closely resembling human feeling. If the best trainer in the world gets in the wrong place during feeding they’ll be killed. By the same token a person with no knowledge at all may be completely safe with them as long as they show enough confidence.
One final comment. I don't agree with everything these trainers do but I can see that they, for the most part, seem to respect and love their animals. Also, like the Russian guy said, some animals are unique, or special. Each of these cats will respond differently to these circumstances: lovingly, brutish/aggressively, or a bit of both. In any case, these cats are amazingly beautiful, intelligent, and affectionate creatures. Bite on the neck between tigers? Heh, it happens. :P
Yea.....Tigers are large carnivores built to kill. They take out Water Buffalo. I would never pet a Tiger like that crowd is......I have too much respect for them to do that! Look up Big Cat Rescues video Never Turn Your Back on a Big Cat. Watch it a few times and study it. Yea...even the sweet big cats stalk when backs are turned!

Agreed. These animals are not living great lives ad they lack any freedom whatsoever.
Spot on !! 👍🏼
It’s dangerous but not as much as you’re saying - they might kill a person accidentally if they turn their backs or something like that and flip the prey drive, but they’re not going to summarily kill numerous patrons like a marauding terminator or something.
@@HkFinn83
Even one person is too much, it could be a child. Sometimes, once an animal gets sick and tired of being restrained and imprisoned they go nuts. They just might go on a killing spree against as many humans as possible.
Tigers are huge, powerful and extremely dangerous. As you even stated, if someone turns their back on the tiger, they just might get attacked and probably killed.
8:40 the tiger avoids stepping in the mud 😂 that was awesome
tiger being led on a chain, made to perform 'tricks'. Not awesome.
Yes, my cats do the same type of thing. They're very clean animals. Except when they puke on the floor...lol
Sekekama I noticed that. When he was walking the tigers thru the woods and that puddle was there and the Tiger hopped over it. They are smart animals and didn’t want to get dirty. 😂 Clean 🧼 Tiger 🐅
Poor animals. So beautiful and taken advantage of :'(
I know brother it really makes me sick to my stomach.
It will end in tears..
I don't know why, my heart hurts when I see a beast chained.
Because your heart knows it's wrong

I do ..because its cruel for them.. not what any animal deserves..,
That's acting as a leash
Here are the answers to the three "chilling questions" asked at the top of this cheap documentary:
1) Are all tigers potential killers? Yes.
2) Can they be tamed? No.
3) Are even the tamest tigers just very well-trained? 2) makes 3) redundant.
They're the wrong questions. It is in the nature of a tiger to prey upon animals, so by definition the answer to 1) is yes. A tiger will kill and eat a human because humans are animals and a potential food source. As the only species that has left the food chain, it's _our_ responsibility to ensure we're not food. There is _no circumstance_ in which a human being killed by a tiger is the tiger's fault. It's all on us.
Most friendly and docile big cat.
Exactly
I think i can picture why tigers kill us because humans don’t understand the wild and keep them in a place were these people should be/ Captivity a thing you should never build because no one cares about animals lives not only do i hate it when people put animals in captivity but I also hate when people Think IT’S FUN KILLING ANIMALS the Nerve
Most, if not all, humans are potential killers given the right circumstances. Humans kill for pleasure and ego while animals kill for food or survival.
The nice thing about tigers is they act like housecats, the problem is its freaking tiger, 400lbs + of killing tools: thick skin, muscle, claws, fangs(mouth claws) and really powerful scissor teeth at the back. A tiger will jump bite and swat at you just like a housecat, and probably send you to the hospital.
Oh my God..at about 5 minutes in I see a tiger walking on a leash among a bunch of kids and their parents running after and petting the tiger. Holy Christ, what am I seeing.
What's strange is why humans like to watch these impressive animals do this kind of tricks that a small dog can do. To me it's far more exciting to learn how they live in their natural habitat.
I will never visit a circus with wild animals very sad
I'm on the same boat.
@im da artistic guru Are they?
@im da artistic guru They are messing with their primitive instincts.. They deserve to be in wild.. not in amusement parks. Its a disrespect..
Well you have just visited one..... Online
Especially after learning what I know about wild animals. Anyone wanting one should learn about the animal before allowing one to live on property caged up. It's sad to see we as americans take advantage of every right there is no matter the safety to others or concern for the animal. It hurts me to see beautiful animals locked up when they should be left alone period. If you can't do good for the animal don't get one especially when you can't take care of yourself. How stupid. Having the nerve to tell people don't worry about your safety I'm in control yeah in control alright a while back that same person was killed by a bite to the neck and he died but before that , one of his cats bit a kid on the leg because the kid fell taking a picture just think if the kid was attacked in the same way the owner was how sad when his attorney had the law over turned because he was rich I'm already knowing money don't care about who lives or dies. but who wins and he blamed the kid for falling. All I know is these rights we have, there's no law to them as if people are going to act right and be accountable for the things they do and this is serious shit. So much love for animals but who cares enough to make sure.
I think it's very cruel to make Tigers perform. Poor Tigers!
Agreed, absurd and not educational at all
The tiger would rather perform as do nothing I would think.
@Wahyu Suryaningpraja peoples have to find something else to earn money, not on the alienation and the destruction of noble animals. This as to see with ignorance and poverty
@@sw-fd4ty Do us all a favor and don't think!
This is absolutely insane!!!! Willed creatures need to be LEFT ALONE!!!!!#!😪😪😣😣
I have a couple of cats and my male cat, although he's all loving and fluffy, and cuddly. If he doesn't like something, he will certainly let me know. With a hiss, sometimes a growl, you never know, well big cats are no different, imagine having one of those great beasts, hissing and growling at you, you might then become afraid and without realising it start acting like prey, and well then it's just goodnight all, and end of story!
Once again exploiting animals in the name of human entertainment.
Kylie Wilson These cats just cant be returned to the wild, and circus life gives them plenty of exercise, and they dont hate it.
brentlion I know, but most people think that way.. every places is different.. but if found as a baby, they can’t return them to the wild.. 🐯
Christel Champagne Most captive specimens were born in captivity, so its even more against having them returned to the wild
brentlion 📍very true. 🐯🦁
There is not a lot of 'wild' to return large predators to. Most land suitable to support large predators is full almost to capacity with predators, and there is not a lot of safe and suitable land for the animals to migrate to.
They dont show you how these tigers are treated when the camera is off. The circus has to go. Its not entertaining to me at all to be honest.
are you mad they are not puppies if they were treated any way badly they would kill their keepers they have them since cubs and put a lot of care into them thats why they can get so close
Is for money
STFU.
It would be nice for the circus to become a thing of the past, I agree.
Sekekama okay lets shut down all the circuses because it doesn’t entertain YOU? Fuck off.
This documentary is great and very educative. All these trainers know the moods of the tiger but still they taking huge risks. A growl itself can be very intimidating as we discovered in our trip to the forests of Tadoba where we had a close encounter with Junior Matkasur. We were lucky to film it.

These poor animals it’s so sad I used to love these shows but then find out really what is happening in the world and with tigers and lions we are running out of them in the wild. These people should be ashamed they belong to be in a beautiful place to live out their life
Crazy
Imagine being the tiger and constantly someone is touching you. If I was the tiger, I’d bite.
Actual tiger seems to be more friendly than you. Likes to interact with the ones he loves.
not a fact. it doesn't bite each n every one. if the tiger is around with a man with whom it trusts or is a friend of it will never react aggressively
@@ridwanhusainishraq it has natural aggression triggers. Ask these trainers what happens when they turn their backs. Their prey drive immediately turns on.

@@wildchild4218 Watch The Lion Whisper, he is welcomed into lion packs.
no way. you can take an animal out of the wild, but you can't take the wild out of the animal.
@@goldeternal true!Although all of them are different personality which may be the most important thing determining whether you can live with one and be safe or not!In my family there lived a Siberian tiger for almost entirely all his life and was probably the best personality possible:he never attacked any human being in his 19 years long life,and this was actually visible since the very first time grandad seen him when he was 3 months old cub:Neron really chosen him and the thing was that in fact until the hour when he took little Neron home he was never thinking about ever keeping such animals,and also Neron was the first ever tiger cub he ever seen and the first big cat he ever touched!And the thing was that he was not alone:he was one of three siblings,and he had a brother and sister who were completely different personalities!So his sister was somewhat lazy and didn't react at any way to cuddling her and seemed like didn't care about anything around her while Neron didn't let grandad go and showed his attraction as well as further in his life!And the third sibling-Neron's brother was an opposite to him:that one was already sitting in a separate basket from the others because he was furious both to his brother and sister and cuddling him meant losing a finger or getting clawed plus anyway being hissed at and roared at,as he was very ferocious-to the point where they couldn't keep that one in the zoo because he was roaring at anyone coming near his enclosure and mainly he was charging at everyone so viciously that after few days he broke one of his canines,lost two claws and fractured a bone in his paw just by hitting the fence!And as for him-he was released in the wild and seems like at least for some time was doing well until he finally made humans he hated that much to lose his trail..
So all of them are the same different from each other as we are!By the way Neron the same time was even taught to hunt local wildlife in nearby forests and grandad regularly went to hunting trips with him,and Neron was nearly all the time fed with meat from his own kills that he was taught to drag home in order to preserve leftovers and feed him afterwards!And still he never turned on his human family which he loved and which loved him,living in their house and on property around it-like a house cat,although not just big for a cat or whatever-he was actually huge even for his kind-Siberians rarely grow that huge-over 380 kilograms-close to the record of weight set at 425 kilograms by Jaipur!And that is obvious that the number of wildlife that he tackled and sometimes thorn apart during his life was huge!And for some reason there were 3 animals that were somewhat loathed by him(or probably adored but only as meal)-the first were rabbits that he started training on and always regarded them as the best treat-but was really cruel to them,as his favourite thing that he frequently did with them was skinning them alive and instead of eating or killing just waiting for those to die!A-secondly for obvious reasons he loathed dogs and killed at least two of them when both he and his family got mad with those barking non-stop beginning at 7:00 A.M till 11:00 P.M. and so one day after warning their owners that if they don't make their dogs shut up in next day than Neron will make it-and the next day those went silent forever!And the third animal that he was always surprisingly deliberately chasing and methodically killing were bobcat and/or lynx that for some reason were in first four years of his life completely wiped out everywhere he was taken on hunting trips:he really sometimes climbed trees that only leopards would otherwise dare climbing to catch those poor cats and so grandad was always worried when he already weighted more than quarter of a tonne but still was desperate to get those cats at all costs:once Neron even fell from a pine tree and broke his paw but somehow as he broke the branch on which that lynx was sitting-he immediately chased and killed it with a broken paw which led to the surgery because he chased it on all four of them through immense pain..And the same time was so human friendly!
True
I like Big cat rescues approach to their Wild Cats.
No/minimal physical contact, meat on stick reward, huge multi sealable room enclosures, no breeding, tons of fun non contact enrichment, public education, and well cared for cats.
Heck they even took in a blind dying old female cougar. They thought she had a few weeks but with their care she had the best few months of her life.
They only take in wild cats if the owners 100% surrender the cat and signs a legal agreement never to own an exotic cat again...or get sued.
They educate the public and tell them wild cats, even the little ones, make bad pets.
Some of the cats rescue had tear jerking back stories. They give the best care possible, unless the cats life will just be painful and they humane euthanize the cat.
But they do surgeries, rehab, and physical therapy for the ones they can.
They are a recognized rehab place for injured and orphaned Bob Cats and have successfully returned some to the wild.
By the way she use to let the general public sleep with Cougars and is a lying lady and need s help
It's like being innocent in prison during the old chain gang days. Caged except for tightly controlled outside time and the hard labor someone else gets rich on.
Lynn Kayee are you nuts these animals KILL for a living! Talk like its a Foo Foo dog or something.
strong belief -- Your comprehension skill set is a few sandwiches short of a picnic my friend. I'm talking like wild animals should be wild animals IN the wild and OUT of cages. Nature is violent sure, but it's not malicious. They may kill for a living but we kidnap the living for entertainment and money. malicious
Sorry if that sounds mean.
Lynn Kayee lol trust me your not offending me. I think it's comedy- humorous -make someone laugh? The View you have. Apples and oranges kid I'm sorry I don't mean to come off malicious
Lynn Kayee people don't do it for the money. Thats what I don't get about your comprehention ! Think about how these people risk there lives out there? You'll never get it.
strong belief - Oh, I absolutely think of the people who risk their lives and I don't want them hurt. But make no mistake - the moment you take animals who build dominance from aggression (sometimes very very little, sometimes it's deadly) and train them for an audience it is either money or just wanting power that is the motive. If they don't want money, they should buy a sanctuary. As you said, they risk their lives but they choose it. They choose to do the routine. They choose what the animals does. They risk that animals life because the animal might have a bad day and go off maybe with an audience around. They have NO choice. I'm not a person who thinks ALL captivity is bad. I don't think playing with them is necessarily bad. But come on, it's about money when you do a routine and their entire life revolves around that performance.
That female, the Tigress at the end, must trust him to jump through those paper hoops, she doesn't even put her paws out in front of her face, which would be a totally natural reflex action for anyone, man or beast, she just carries straight on with the jump, and goes through those hoops in one smooth movement. That is trust on her part.
I'm amazed this people get impressed about their "tamed" tigers biting them, it's gonna happen again and it could be worse.
They will always bite. They always want to bite or suck onto something. They have 2 kinds of bite, one is an actual bite and the other is a normal bite.
Not one trainer in this video said their tigers were tame. Where do you get that?
I love how Patrick takes responsibility for the cat's behavior "we have to e able to read the animal..." very respectful of the cat's essential nature
As if the iron leash makes a difference. A simple ribbon would make the same psychological impact (if it makes one).
Big cats are no different to little domestic cats but the size determines how badly injured you can get! My cat will be loving and then all of a sudden in a bad mood whip around and bite or whack me with her paw. Imagine if she were the same size as a tiger! They get fed up for the slightest reason sometimes. You have to be very respectful of cats especially when that size. You can never fully trust them.🐯
I don't think ANY tiger should be captive. Period. Only exception is to prepare a formerly captive tiger for release.
zoo is great
Christine Still
What? Captive tigers can't be rewild.
@@coop-nr6nm lol, yeah, even if you reintroduced them gradually w/ a semi open enclosure, they'd still run up to humans and ask for food and misunderstandings would occur
I love Tiger documentaries!
Siberian male tigers grow up to 900 pounds (3 times the size of Sultan). Even a 180 pound leopard can dominate and do anything to a person, so imagine what a tiger than can take down a fully grown male gar, weighing a tone can do a person weighing 10% of that.
Well only in captivity. The largest alleged wild Siberian tiger was 847 lbs, and that's only alleged. It is exceptionally rare to find wild tigers that are 800 lbs let alone 900. Nowadays finding an 800 lbs tiger is like finding an 8 ft tall human, extremely rare, as the larger lines have been poached out. The usual maximum weight for a Siberian tiger is around 650 lbs, for males the range is 350-650 lbs. In captivity the biggest recorded reached just over 1,000 lbs due to being cage fat and living a bit longer than they could in the wild, as tigers keep growing throughout their life, sideways that is ;) They keep putting on weight.
This is quite a show undoubtedly. I believe that many great cats, including tigers especially, must be protected by us good humans from our bad kind.
Tigers should be left alone in there own environment, and humans should mind there own business and leave them alone, man is the worst animal on planet earth,
William Lane when people keep destroying the wild animals land wtf is suppose to happen its horrible if you ask me but what else besides conservation to save their species as long as they aren’t being poached I do dislike the training animals to do tricks just leave them in a really big enclosure to live out their lives try to give em the best life possible since you can’t give em their jungle habitat they deserve
Why Not sure you tell people that I don’t indulge in poaching or shit like that
That doesnt happen in their own environment. Keep in mind there are many villages in india where tigers are endemic and the villages themselves kill them bc tigers target their animals.
Agreed
@Sara Ford So what are you saying? Villagers should go City and leave their land and home? Not everyone have the same economic healty like you karen. Villagers live in Village because of not they are liking it, because they have no other choice. They don't have enough money to live in Cities or towns.
That Hollywood trainer “I was attracted to the cats, I feel like I could help them, I feel like i could understand them’- I,I,I...Damn shame they cannot leave these F animals alone! Beauty is a blessing & a curse, especially in regards to the tigers. 😔💕
8:57 imagine you go have a walk and see those freaks walking there with tigers ... animals they could never hold back. Those "trainers" don't love the tigers, else they would set them free. They are selfish and greedy psychopaths only for money they do this, no love, no passion. If you love set them free ... you don't do ... you don't love
Sry to say ,they cant go out to the wild,they will be killd.
i am so fucking obsessed by tigers that i wish the day would come tiger will keep me as their pet
They need more land where the can be as well as live deer to hunt.🐯

When tamed Tigers go WILD and attack.
I'm almost 100% convinced we humans are the dumbest of all animals.
U r an animal if you wish. Animals are on this planet to serve us. They are inferior to us. The opposite of what leftist ideology has brainwashed you into believing.
Adam Eustachy what does politics have to do with this? We are part of the animal kingdom, every animal is different to each other and we are just a lot smarter. But obviously we can make stupid decisions like this documentary
@@rakbuck5378 I'll answer for him, Absolutely nothing. I'm actually an independent.
As far as believing in evolution, hence the liberal reference, no I do not believe we evolved from apes. We as humans are mammals and for classification we are considered an animal. I know that the Bible does reference the use of lower animals for food ect.. As far as do whatever we want? Free will is something that differentiate us from other animals, its also what's caused so much destruction in the world.
I will never understand why extremist of any kind always seem so angry. Not to mention how boring this world would be if everybody believed and thought exactly the same.
Very boring in my opinion.
Stay at Home Cichlid Mom thanks for sharing your opinion, i agree that we are different and i think we should care for other animals unlike they do in this documentary

Clearly these cats are healthy and completely happy with their humans.
This type of work is very hopeful for future efforts in preserving endangered species.
Maudi. Yeh you can't really Tame any cat. One of my kittys scratched me very lightly this morning because she didn't wanna be picked up, but it was nothing really, and she nuzzled against me just as soon as I put her down. I mean imagine if that was a tiger? I'd have a hell of a wound on my hand, and I would have to have stitches and antibiotics, and all sorts, and you often get a scratch when you're just playing or they're wound up or anything, just transfer that to Tiger or Lion, any big cat and you're screwed!
if it was tiger. Most likely you would lose your hand !
This was amazing. These beautiful, powerful Tigers are spellbinding! I have never seen anything like this performance. The trainer was unfortunately necessary to bring this about.
"We are still friends " 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Playing with death
I think the Russian Trainer had the most Respect for his Tigers.
He and the old Tigress had a rare mutual respect for each other, hence the double paper hoop trick.
Yea! I saw that respect especially when the Russian trainer started hitting " the old tiger cause she bit another OLD TIGER!..if u look close he dont think he just hits he has a reflex not a reaction..
No trainer has respect for the wild animals they train. It's not natural for them to be put on display in society, training them to do tricks in the first place shows a huge lack of respect. You can tell the tigers hate it too, they're just scared by whatever he does to them during practice.
They have the power the size and strength and there are having a bad day like some humans do..
What do you think
Absolutely breathtaking💖 you are amazing greg💖
So sad... All those heartless people going to see these animals. I wish all people would stop paying just for entertainment. Poor animals.
I think the tiger is the most amazing wildcat in the world cause they known to have muscles and the characteristic stripes but now tigers are also known to have different color mutations from the common orange to the rare black color no matter what color mutation the tiger have I still think they amazing animals the white tiger origin goes back to first white tiger ever found in the wild in the 1950s all subspecies of tiger is amazing even though 3 subspecies became extinct it’s amazing you can get the facts I noticed that sultan has his color form his mother Rama and his sister Sita has the golden color and Mohan and his son Taj are the white tigers in the family of two orange tigers two golden tiger and two white tigers
What exactly is the purpose of all this ? This is rather really sad, could not even finish the video

@@melindamonson3876 Ah, good point, I believe you're probably right. I'd not thought about that. Thank you, lovely
💕 >^. .^< 💕
I found this documentary interesting. To the vitriol from people complaining of their "abuse" - I agree that tigers belong in the wild. However, we have to be pragmatic. What captivity provides to these individuals is protection. They would be shot if they encroached on human territory, or killed for their fur. Tigers are endangered. We need to sustain a captive population so that if they go extinct in the wild they aren't gone forever. This also brings people closer to these beautiful animals and shows them in a different light, so that maybe more people learn to respect them.
The trainers here clearly care deeply about the tigers and provide them with good care. Their lives are much easier and filled with far less peril than in the wild.
Respect for big cats, having them perform in front of crowds is wrong. Ok, tigers are an endangered species but surely they're better off in sanctuaries with breeding programs which in the end put these beautiful creatures back into their natural environment.
Oh and big cats in a circus is a deffo no, hope they turn on their trainers because this is so cruel !
steve duncan there are only 300 left dumbass put them in the wild and they will be extinct in the next 10 years so shut the fuk up bitcg
they should get a couple of vipers or cobra's see if they could tame those & train them & see how good they are impress me mutha fuckers
The wild Siberian Tiger population has been on the rise for years now it is probobly well over 500 by now. And if they cant survive without human husbandry then put them in a sanctuary and admire them from afar. They should not be made to do tricks for yuppie scum nor should they have to be doped up just so some prick can pet them.
Nick, some people already do that but they rip out the fangs to render them harmless. Steve Irwin taught me that.
Imagine guy down the street walking with the meanest dog, you walking with one of these tiger.
They're all perfectly tame till they take a bite outa ur ass.
agree, you're right about that.
Andy got attacked and hospitalized right after this filming!

If he was starved he’d attack them. So no he won’t be starved. In captivity they are over fed to avoid that.
I enjoyed watching thanks for the upload
Wow watching in 2018 and he's the top tiger trainer and treating them that way shame on you. Those are beautiful creatures should be left in the wild or on a sanctuary
I am only watching because I am mesmerised by their beauty.
aint right , no room in the world for ';trained/tamed tigers ' - trained for what, a life in a circus???
Sending these cats back into the wild with no survival skills which is taught by the mother is also cruel.These big cats are born to kill but they have to be shown how to do it.Without it they won't last long.
nigel button - with each passing year, there will be less land and therefore less of these predators to roam in them. It has been surmised that in 10 to 20 yrs most of these animals may be extinct or otherwise unless kept in zoos or private parks/domain. My friend, you better get used to it, or maybe you, yourself can keep one in your own house to breed. Therefore, accept, leave & live on !!!
My pets. They're the best. Be sure to feed them fully cooked meat roasts and they'll love you forever.
Very beautiful and noble big cats. Excellent video. Many thanks.
23:30. Cruel to separate babies from mom like this, left to scream a métal cage... All done so the mother goes back in heat, a breeding machine, nothing more :(
Seen brave people before up close to tigers that's insane! 🐯🐯🐯🐯
Tigers, lions or any other animal shouldn’t be in a circus…yea they’re beautiful and I’m pretty sure everyone wants to see it buhh dats wrong we should protect them not keep them in cages they should be free… there’s a lot more dat I wanna say buhh it’s gonna take years to say it all, just let them go
24:00 "some of that weight gain comes from bottle feeding"... why don't they just leave them with the mother? They'd gain even more, and in a healthier way!
You seen to watch this every few months is once not enough for you
The tiger cubs have very thick skin, that's not random... it comes from tiger mothers kicking the tiger cubs away from nursing while teething. Evolution takes over and only the most durable cubs survive.
So, you're right, you can
Watching this with my pet tiger rn hes reacting to the cat sounds
@pmailkeey its just a tabby cat haha I wish i had a tiger
@pmailkeey i recorded my cat meowing with my phones slpw motion camera and youd be surprised how close to a tiger they sound slowd down haha
If the tiger doing tricks they have been BEATEN
The only way to have a truly tame tiger is by selectively breeding it and training it for a few thousand years
No, it's to do what is so obvious in this video. Fear based learning. You can see their ears are back and are swatting and roaring as a defense. How people at the show cheer and all are blind to cat psychology are so fucking stupid. Along with the show and the photo session, they are drugged enough that they don't respond to people. It is horrible how the world is
You can NEVER tame a wild animal no matter what you do.

There's an old saying about playing with fire...
So many virtue signaling, pompous, holier than thou, self hating people in this comment section. These cats aren't being beaten and abused. They're healthy and they seem quite happy. Who are any of you to say that they aren't? Every last one of these people on this film know the risk that they are taking and feel that it's worth it. I don't agree with the small cages, but this is just a clip of part of their days. Quite frankly as long as they're being taken care of and not abused, it's none of anybody's business if someone wants to have and work with exotic animals or any animals for that matter.
Taming a lion ? Still possible. Tiger ? No way. Which is why they're solitary hunters.
Taming a lion? Much harder than taming a tiger. Just watch the documentary. Tigers are docile friendly and easy going animals when raised from a cub.
@@coop-nr6nm have only been to an animal circus once and even when u c them in cages have never seen a tiger but always lions
Taming Lion is more hard if you have any experience with big cats.they want to be dominant,more possessive towards their food and female mate.they can bite you anytime because of hyper agression
The most beautiful animal on the planet nothing comes close to the tigers 🐅👍
I’m not surprised that trainer got bit. He’s running around in that pool like prey 11:35. Only a matter of time. So sad to see these animals in captivity. I always cheer when the animal gets fed up and mauls someone. I probably shouldn’t admit that... lol
That head and those paws are massive...😱☠️
notice the thai circus tiger didnt it look a little well, drowsy?
More Tigers in captivity then the wild !!!
My house cat is a moody sh!t, no way I would trust him as a pet if he weighed more than me...Cats do as they please and occasionally it pleases its owners but thats about as far as 'control' over cats go..
Bwahahahaa, too bloody right, love! I'm a EAT you, I'm a beeeeg cat! Rowwr.
💕 >^. .^< 💕
My cat is the most loving, smart and endearing pet I’ve ever known. She just wants to be held and cuddled all the time. I’d definitely trust her if she were big...
She’s actually part bobcat.
Jedics, Thank you very much. I always said that if a housecat could kill and eat you it would.
Nope, when a human and cat have mutual love and respect (when the human truly loves the cat) they will definitely gain a connection, at least that’s what happened for me
You can never get a wild animal to surrender it. Wild intensict sorry. If I spelled it wrong so You can’t tame it u can train it but not tame it
if you tame, you tame a wild type. that's taming.
you call this "taming"? then what do you call "shame"?
Yeah, real taming is about getting the trust of an adult wild animal who doesn't trust you or even wants to kill you. It's a completely different story.
In Avatar movie there's a part about taming a mountain banshee, a very good example.
Breathtaking 😳🤯 u r right by mentioning that only days later same tiger attacked same person 🧐
"Entire act of mating is over in less than 30 seconds"
Men everywhere feel vindicated
Tigers are not supposed to be on chains or in a circus. We must see things in a different light. We need to conserve not make captive. This is no way to treat an endangered and majestic animal. For all the platitudes and excuses this is about making profit.
People like The Lion Whisperer know how to deal with these big cats. He respects them and they seem to recognize and appreciate him for that.
he had them since their early days , feeding them with bottles which makes a huge difference
Yeah! He is and it’s probably Way less then 0% Chance the other Fur brain People will be as good to Lions
Great video ... good to see....
I think its terrible that all these tigers are bred and kept in captivity and will never really be free, that's so sad to know. ( and all for human entertainment).
Lisa Gonzalez shutup
lazyloco19 why would you tell someone you don't even know to shut up ? and if you read the other comments I'm not the only one who thinks this either !
You are right Lisa., people opposing your thought are the ones who go and watch these freak shows.,
Lovely tiger shows
I wish for more tigers out in the wild
Wow
This made me so sad. Poor wee tiger cubs, raised in cages. 🐯
💕 >^. .^< 💕
The hardest bit is watching the tiger cubs being used for photo ops-- baby tigers are still wee babies, and all babies need to sleep. Not only is it unbearably sad, it is so very wrong on so many levels. I get incredibly angry (hence my, in this instance especially, oh so appropriate name) at the brutal and completely unnecessarily rough way the poor wee baby cubs are handled and subsequently kept awake-- all in the name of god-money, of course. I am so sad. So bloody angry as well. Grrrr. Aye, I am indeed an angry cat!!

tigers are the most beautiful creation of mother nature, they need to be respected deeply in a spiritual way, and training them by bending them to our will is not the way to do it. please watch videos of 'khairi' here on y/t....she was never trained or tamed but nevertheless very affectionate and loving. also,watch how billy arjun singh relates to wild tigers and a leopard, purely out of love, and no agenda. i believe that animals are profoundly intuitive and know when they're being exploited even if it's done in a pampering and friendly way.
really sad to see a tiger walking on a chain
Charlie Nguyen you are an idiot
@@lazyloco19 no you shut up wild animals are ment to be in the wild
lazyloco19 bad this will happen to you one day, always remember this video
lazyloco19 that’s a stupid comment from a stupid person with a stupid screen name.
Josiah DavisTv you’re right ❤️
If these "trainers" claim they know so much about these tigers, then get some common sense and not treat them like pets. They're WILD ANIMALS!!! If you really are concerned about saving the breed, put money towards a wildlife sanctuary let the tigers be the wild animals that they are, and don't keep them for your own entertainment. I mean seriously, if these "trainers" knew anything at all, they wouldn't take tigers for "walks" in public and let strangers pet the tigers. That's just plain INSANITY!!! If any of these tigers were to bite,attack,etc. the "trainers", then I don't blame the tigers because the "trainers" deserve it!! There's no such thing as "taming a wild animal"!
Anna F shutup and get a life
Oh Fuck you. I owned one and had no problems. Fuck off.
Man those teeth...☠️☠️☠️ and those eyes are enough to make you think twice before approaching.☠️☠️☠️
I love the fact that this people take care of this tigers but use them for circus and movies it’s not ok at all
Tigers should not be in circuses.
نادر الی راحمان shutup
Tigers are wild and belong in nature or life sanctuary
Making a tiger stand up on hind legs and walk backwards!
I hate seeing animals this way
"Tigers should not be in circuses."
SO WHY ARE THEY IN CIRCUS?
نادر الی راحمان They would die in the wild, so they need to be in captivity, in this case.
"نادر الی راحمان They would die in the wild, so they need to be in captivity, in this case."
who knows, have you testet it? and dying in the wild is better than in captivity or ?

It’s all projection of human emotions onto an animal that simply doesn’t experience life in the same way we do. Make no mistake - your pet cat would summarily kill you if it could. It’s the same with these creatures, they have nothing even closely resembling human feeling. If the best trainer in the world gets in the wrong place during feeding they’ll be killed. By the same token a person with no knowledge at all may be completely safe with them as long as they show enough confidence.
Do you know how many people are killed by other humans who also kill their own kin, even their parents, for little reasons?
@@Reincarnation111 ok but what does that have to do with tigers?
@@HkFinn83 if you can't figure that out, I won't explain. Have a good life...👋🏼
@@Reincarnation111 seems you have everything figured out😂😂
Take those chains off the cat if you feel so comfortable with them. Just saying.. What? They be!ong in whatever WILD life they can have.
Mags
They are captive animals. They cant be rewild.
One final comment. I don't agree with everything these trainers do but I can see that they, for the most part, seem to respect and love their animals. Also, like the Russian guy said, some animals are unique, or special. Each of these cats will respond differently to these circumstances: lovingly, brutish/aggressively, or a bit of both. In any case, these cats are amazingly beautiful, intelligent, and affectionate creatures. Bite on the neck between tigers? Heh, it happens. :P
Yea.....Tigers are large carnivores built to kill.
They take out Water Buffalo. I would never pet a Tiger like that crowd is......I have too much respect for them to do that!
Look up Big Cat Rescues video Never Turn Your Back on a Big Cat.
Watch it a few times and study it. Yea...even the sweet big cats stalk when backs are turned!
(11:40) about.
Tripping like that gets many Tiger trainers killed.
Humans tripping sets off Tigers killer instinct!
Are you gay?
there needs to be closed off guarded area maybe the size of country in this world where u can have animals roaming
