Beyoncé And Jay Z Denounced For Posing In Photo With Baby Tiger in Asia
Jay Z and Beyonce have been criticized for feeding a baby tiger in Phuket, Thailand - a tourist activity that it's often advised to avoid because of underlying cruelty to the animals.
The couple and their adorable Blue Ivy were pictured during a tour in Southeast Asia. Among the several photos snapped, the above in particular has been causing a lot of controversy.
"A tiger is not a plaything," Schmidt-Burbach, who works for World Animal Protection recently said of the Carters photo.
"Their health and well-being should not be sacrificed for a photo opportunity. When you look behind the scenes, vacation snaps like these support an industry that relies on animal cruelty… this sordid side of tourism is conveniently hidden from public view."
