China is allowing the production of bones coming from captive-bred tigers so they can be used as tonic wine – despite the fact that such practices have been dubbed illegal since 1993.

China’s government points out that this procedure does not apply to captive tigers – what high-ranking officials in Beijing are failing to highlight is the fact that these tigers were actually wild ones before being apprehended and ruthlessly placed in captivity. China currently holds some 5, 000 tigers in captivity.

 
Exclusive: Punish thugs that cut dog’s ears off and posed for photos!

A century ago, there were over 100, 000 pure wild tigers. Now, their numbers has dramatically decreased to less than 4, 000 and China has played an important role in this unimaginable collapse.

The entire fuss is that tiger bone tonic wine is highly regarded for its medicinal properties – it is believed to cure anything from muscle pain to rheumatism, arthritis and stimulate blood flow. It has been used for decades in Traditional Chinese Medicine.

The tiger bones are placed in the magic liquid and left there until the bottle is removed and shipped to stores

China has pledged to combat tiger poaching and has always argued it is capable to stick to this plan – this pledge was taken most recently when Prince William visited China during an official visit to discuss wildlife. On the other hand, China is allowing the massive farming of tigers – these poor animals are confined in small cages, with basic food and water and with no room to move a muscle, before they are inhumanely destroyed for their bones.

This is just wrong on so many levels.

Please take a moment to support this cause and urge the Chinese government to ban the use of all tiger products in medicine! Help end the tiger farming industry in China right now and ask Chinese pharmacists to find other cures to the above-mentioned symptoms!
