Jay Z & Beyonce harshly criticized for posing with animals in Thailand: PHOTOS

Beyonce ,Jay Z and Blue Ivy may have had a ball during their Christmas holiday in Thailand, but they are now being criticized for posing and playing with animals.A statement published on the World Animal Protectionwebsite, wildlife expert Dr Jan Schmidt-Burbach said:

Tourists like Beyoncé are often unaware of the cruelty tigers suffer for these tourist attractions. That’s why we recently launched the next step in our ‘Before they book’ campaign, to expose the truth behind the suffering of tigers posing for holiday snaps.

“A tiger is not a plaything. Their health and well-being should not be sacrificed for a photo opportunity. When you look behind the scenes, holiday snaps like these support an industry that relies on animal cruelty.“Many tourists unwittingly contribute to the suffering of wild animals like these. They’re simply not aware that their ‘once in a lifetime’ photo means a lifetime of misery for that animal.”(Continue)

The tigers used for these photos are often forcibly removed from their mothers to be fed artificially by tourists. They are also crammed into tiny cages or chained to the floor for long periods. A far cry from their natural lives in the wild.

Kate Good of One Green Planet also called out Beyoncé for riding on an elephant while on her trip to Thailandtoo:

“The wee-baby elephant that Beyonce has so happily perched herself upon, was likely taken from his mother and forced to endure a six-month ‘breaking’ period during which time he was locked in a small enclosure and continuously beaten by his mahouts (trainers). It is not unlikely that this poor elephant will spend everyday[sic] after this one carrying other tourists, exposed to the extreme heat and weather of Phuket, knowing little but a life of pain and misery.
