The video was shared by Facebook user Pranay Dalmia
“I visited Tiger Temple Thailand a few days ago. It was really depressing to see the tigers being treated poorly.
“I saw some of the tigers being dragged by the tail and one of the tigers being punched in the face.
“I happened to catch a video recording of the tiger being punched in the face. See the attached video at around 20 seconds.”
I have a suggestion for Big Tdoo & Co. – Flex some of that Section 44 muscle. If anything needs sorting out it’s this place. Send in the army. Take all the Tigers. Lock up the monks. That will paint Thailand in a good light around the world instead of all the negative headlines we see so often these days.

godt nyt i sagen om det berygtede tiger tempel
Tiger Temple trafficking allegations mount
A new report alleging that the famous "Tiger Temple" in Kanchanaburi has been involved in the illegal wildlife trade for more than a decade is expected to increase pressure on Thai authorities to intervene.
Wat Pa Luangta Bua Yanasampanno in Sai Yok district has been the focus of inquiries since three of its 147 captive tigers reportedly disappeared in late 2014. However, police investigations have made little progress and wildlife protection officials have conceded that the case is "very sensitive".
The Tiger Temple is estimated to generate about 100 million baht a year from tourists who visit by the busload to pet and feed tiger cubs, walk tigers on leashes and take selfies with the animals, according to National Geographic magazine, which this week released details of the new trafficking allegations.
