GET YOUR WEAK ASS SHIT OUTTA THE WHITE TIGER TAG

THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT POST YOU’LL EVER SEE UNDER THIS TAG

Picture #1:
Kenny. Kenny doesn’t have down’s syndrome. Kenny is (was) severely deformed due to generations of inbreeding. This should be the true face of white tiger “conservation”

Picture #2
Zuri was born with a severely compromised immune system due to inbreeding. Here she is with apparently a full bodied case of ringworm.

Although Zuri was born normal looking on the outside, she has an incredibly weak immune system and was near death when she came to live at Noah’s Ark. At her original home, she was hidden from the eyes of the visiting public as she was missing almost all of the hair on her body. Her owners had called their vet in multiple times, but had decided Zuri was a hopeless case and was ready to euthanize her.

Is this not beautiful enough for you? Do you refuse to acknowledge that for every “beautiful” picture of white tigers you reblog there are at least a dozen others like Kenny and Zuri? And countless more that die shortly after birth, hidden away from the public eye to protect this disgusting practice and keep the adoring public in ignorance.

EDUCATE YOURSELVES!!

Team finds first evidence of primates regularly sleeping in caves

Scientists have discovered that some ring-tailed lemurs in Madagascar regularly retire to limestone chambers for their nightly snoozes, the first evidence of the consistent, daily use of the same caves and crevices for sleeping among the world’s wild primates.

The ring-tailed lemurs may be opting to sleep in caves for several reasons, said University of Colorado Boulder anthropology Associate Professor Michelle Sauther, who led the study. While the cave-sleeping behavior is likely important because it provides safety from potential predators, it also can provide the primates with access to water and nutrients, help to regulate their body temperatures during cold or hot weather and provide refuge from encroaching human activities like deforestation, she said.

“The remarkable thing about our study was that over a six-year period, the same troops of ring-tailed lemurs used the same sleeping caves on a regular, daily basis,” she said. “What we are seeing is a consistent, habitual use of caves as sleeping sites by these primates, a wonderful behavioral adaptation we had not known about before.”
