Tiger Bone Wine

without comments

OK so it sounds a little gruesom but it is the latest fad to hit the world of wine and that is,

Tiger Bone Wine’. Although you must be aware that ‘Tiger Bone Win’e is highly illegal. Some reports are still floating around that the wine is being made and sold in some animal parks in China. Evidence emerged of the illegal production of the tiger wine when the EIA were investigating the matter. They said they were offered drinks made from tiger carcasses soaked in rice wine chilled in a wine cooler.

According to the NGO, its investigators found that the tiger wine was openly advertised at various animal parks in China. The wine is apparently a healthy cure for such conditions as arthritus and rheumatism. The park’s staff have stated that the wine only came from dead tigers after they had been killed in fights with bigger tigers. Personally, I find the treatments of these magnificent animals dispicable. I am hoping that these animal parks are not endorsing the sale of this wine as it truly is vile and cruel.

Debbie Banks, head of the EIA’s tiger campaign called on the Chinese authorities to close down the illegal trade immediately. “They are well aware that tigers are a protected species and we will not tolerate this disgusting behaviour”.
