Tigers

Some much larger cats than yesterdays post. Plus no words can truly describe, other than seeing these images of the #Kanchanaburi #Tiger #Temple from 11 years ago. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiger_Temple seems to say it is no longer open. There was controversy from somewhere. Yet it would seem to still be a going concern from a quick search on Google. Perhaps at a scaled down level, as there must still be a temple and a place for the cats rescued from #poachers. Problems always arise from over breeding, over stacking a good thing and greed for profits. #Crypto and #Web3 could learn from it 🤓 🤑 🙄.

Perhaps somebody can point towards more information in the comments. My first trip to this location was even earlier, around 2005. Back then, there were few tigers, a temple, and a disused or quarried area to keep the big cats. Visitors were in small groups at a time, led by the monks. 2005 I was very lucky to have walked along with a tame fully grown adult tiger here. he was about 4 feet tall and 8 feet long.

Would I do that again? Mmmmmmm

Yeah of course. Can it still be done? Maybe someone reading this knows, and comments below.

By the time I got to see it again 11 years ago, things had already moved along. There were more cats, and more tourists. These pictures are from that time.
