Jail for zoo boss who sold animals
THE former boss of Three Gorges Forest Wild Animal World in Hubei Province has been jailed for 18 years for selling protected animals, a Hubei newspaper reported yesterday.
The Intermediate People's Court in Yichang City said Wang Zhuyi sold one tiger to businessman Jiang Shuyuan, who later killed it, in March last year, Chutian Metropolis Daily said.
Police found tiger bones and skin at Jiang's home.
The court also accused Wang of selling monkeys.
Animal World had about 50 tigers when it opened to visitors in 2002.
About 20 tiger cubs would have been born every year so the number of tigers in the zoo should have been 150 by 2007, according to the Yichang Forestry Bureau. However, at that time there were only 10, The Beijing News reported.
Wang had started work at the zoo in 2006.
A female Siberian tiger was found mutilated and skinned at the zoo in December 2007, an earlier report said.
An investigation into that matter is continuing.
