Despite attempts by zoo staff to stop them, tourists continue to pull out fur and even pose with the "trophies." They explain their actions by ancient beliefs that tigers are associated with luck and protection.
However, experts warn that such actions cause stress in animals and can be dangerous. For such treatment of animals in a zoo, administrative liability is imposed, including fines and even arrest.
