In Vietnam, police seized a tiger weighing 200 kg from poachers. The animal was kept in a cramped cage; he could barely get up. Officers sent the plump predator to the Ninh Binh Bear Sanctuary for rehabilitation. 
This park cooperates with the international animal protection organization Four Paws. 
A team of veterinarians traveled more than six hours to Phu Tho province in Vietnam, where police discovered the tiger on May 11. The specialists were shocked by what they saw. Tigers typically weigh between 60 and 165 kg. 
During the long journey to the reserve, the group regularly stopped to examine the animal and give it water. Now the tabby is on a strict diet. 
A representative from the reserve commented: "The illegal trade in tigers continues unabated, driven by demand for glue made from the animals' bones, as well as body parts for traditional medicine and decorative purposes."
"This threatens the survival of the species and causes suffering to beautiful creatures. We are committed to fighting this cruel trade and advocating for tigers." 
“According to the Forest Department, about 388 tigers are kept in zoos, safari parks and private properties.” 
Last December, a tigress was rescued from a Thai animal farm with only skin and bones left. In horrific footage, Salamas lies on dirty concrete and can barely get up. 
Wildlife Friends Foundation Thailand (WFFT) rescued her and 34 other tigers and 18 leopards.
Other rescued animals include a timid tigress named A-1 and 20-year-old tiger Rambo, who suffers from breathing problems. They spent their entire lives in cramped and dirty cages. 
“Unfortunately, they will not return to the wild, but we can offer them the best: a safe home where they can roam the forest land, interact with other tigers and even swim in the lake. We are grateful to the National Parks and Wildlife Department of Thailand for accepting measures against illegal wildlife trade and for cooperation with WFFT,” said Edwin Vick, founder of the WFFT Wildlife Rescue Center.
