The
Thai wildlife authorities found 40 dead tiger cubs in a freezer on Wednesday at
the Tiger Temple, a controversial tourist attraction in western Thailand, and were
investigating whether the carcasses were evidence of the temple’s involvement
in the illegal wildlife trade.
According to the nytimes.com The discovery came as
Thai wildlife rangers were removing
adult tigers from the temple in an effort to shut down the
attraction after receiving complaints that the temple was trafficking in
endangered species.
