The twentieth century saw the rise of a new ‘sport’: the canned tiger hunt. Tigers may be shot in cages, within fenced enclosures, or over feeding stations. Some animals are tame and have little fear of humans, while others may be tied to a stake or drugged before they are shot. The defining characteristic of a canned hunt is that the odds have been artificially manipulated against the animal. Canned hunting, the bone trade, and facilities offering ‘tiger cub petting’ tourist experiences are all closely linked.
