Filthy Conditions

The condition they were in meant that they were inside the box for all those days the crate was traveling. The condition in which the cubs were kept was a terrible sight to look at. The cubs had been crammed inside that crate.

Crammed Inside

The crate’s height was somewhere around 42cm and the cubs were almost 60 cm tall which meant that the cubs were forcefully made to enter the crate and the cubs weren’t even able to stand inside the crate.

Major Problems

The problem of not being able to stand was one of the smaller ones. The bigger problems comprised of the fact that the whole crate was covered in their feces. The crate had no food or water for the cubs. It was a real question that how did the cubs survive in such situations.

Starving

The scene inside the crate made several things clear and one of them was that the cubs had not eaten or drunk anything in a long time. The cubs were in a starving and dehydrated and were in a pathetic condition and the maggots that filled the crate was an example of the same.

As soon as the authorities discovered that the crate contained three Siberian tiger cubs, they at once informed the animal welfare organization that goes by the name Animals Lebanon. The people at Animals Lebanon were shocked to find out what the authorities and the employees had found out.
