Animal Planet's Big Cat Expert Dave Salmoni Celebrates Global Tiger Day With Tiger Cub | PeopleTV

I just came from watching his segments on Jimmy Kimmel and honestly these hosts were so much cooler and relaxed. Jimmy is always freaking out even my the smallest, harmless animals and is always interrupting Dave. So glad to see a good interview with him!

[@foolslayer9416]

Not everyone handles animals the same, I had a friend of mine who ran away from my dog just because he kicked in his sleep...

[@enhancestray]

Jimmy was trying to show his excitement to make the show more popular. People take more interest in things which have more dramas in it.

[@ajsky1066]

Steve Harvey is the worst among all the over-actors.

[@d4pollonia]

he has way more to lose.

[@satbirsingh4969]

I just saw those segments too and thought the exact same lol.

[@anishasarkar9228]

I am so happy seeing this calm and poised reaction to the baby tiger by these extremely well behaved hosts. They ain't trying to be funny or crowd pleasing and most importantly not freaking out and they're letting Dave talk atleast. Unlike Jimmy Kimmel and Fallon.

[@ArunKumar-vl4vl]

Oh god, that is so true right? They are horrible hosts to introduce a wild animal or even a smaller one, they are jzt jumpy and freaked out and always interrupt Dave whenever he comes to the show, especially Kimmel!

[@vikassharma-ul2mz]

Couldn't agree more. It's really irritating to see Jimmy interrupting Dave every time. I came here after watching Jimmy's show.

@Eyre Borne what's the logic? 😂😂

[@PeaceDweller]

lol, there has never been a scenario of of bringing an adult Lion or Tiger onto a show like this or any talk show. If they get agitated and attack then you'd need at least 8 men and some tranquilizer guns to settle it down.

[@johnsheppard1476]

@@PeaceDweller nope:there are actually people who can not just calm down a captive and actually people friendly one tiger-but to stop two wild tigers fight to death with bare hands and take care of one of them after putting him into a his car and driving away from the other one(exactly what John Varty did with Ron the tiger and Shundaban the tiger which both were wild and both were over quarter of a tonne!Funny though but the next week the same Shundaban killed another tiger at exactly the same spot where he was fighting Ron before that),or in another case when the owner of the Taigan park in Crimea stopped two adult tigresses fight to death with bare hands by pulling one of them by the tail into her enclosure while the door was closed between them by workers,so he slapped couple of times the tigress that he pulled by the tail with his shoe(I mean taken off shoe),came out of her enclosure,into the other one's and rendered first aid to the other one:pulled out the claw stuck in her hide and sprayed all her wounds with special spray!Than punched the worker who let them meet each other by opening the door between them..And just an important note:neither of them was de-fanged or de-clawed or neutered,and neither of them was sedated neither than nor any other time!As well as all the animals in this park where there are 80 lions,which are during all summer kept in a huge enclosure where people are allowed to take photos and to cuddle and sometimes even ride them,50 Siberian tigers,8 Bengal white tigers(although zero regular Bengals),6 jaguars and a crap load of leopards-although nobody is entering jaguar enclosures and only Zubkov is entering rarely the leopard enclosures because they tend to run away and he has to return them by carrying all the way back with tail in one hand and back of the neck in another! By the way there is just another such story,once my grandad which owned a Siberian tiger Neron was on another hunting trip with his tiger and for some reason Neron decided to climb a tree to get on the branch where there was a lynx hiding from them and so when he actually got to that branch-he just crushed it with his huge weight and fell down which resulted in broken paw,and although he managed to chase and kill that lynx which fell together with him,and than collapsed due to excruciating pain,almost like screaming and so to get poor cat out of the forest to a vet,grandad had to fix the paw with bare hands as well-as he later said many times to mom-that was the scariest moment with Neron that he ever experienced!First of all because Neron was really experiencing huge stress and immense pain so could harm him that time(most likely that would have been just lethal due to the power and size of Neron which was abnormally large for even his kind-nearly record breaking weight that he reached during his 19 years long life was 380-390 kilograms-which says that all..Though by that time Neron was about 300 kilograms..Which is still more than enough)-and also because he was not sure if that will help or the paw will get completely ruined since it already was not only visibly bent aside but the piece of broken bone was visible as well:to get Neron to walk and run as good as before the vet had to completely put him out and operate his paw,leaving several rebars to fix it in place and put the paw into a tutor for it to heal.. So I can say for sure that there are people who are able to handle an angry tiger with bare hands😎🐯👌

[@Naresh-uk8tv]

[@poojahazra7000]

So all these big-talkers in the comment section about Dave not mentioning India, as land of tigers, should keep in mind as of november 2018, the Maharashtra CM ordered the EXECUTION of a tiger in India. In fact, the forest department hunted down and killed the tigress, which had little cubs, all by claiming she was a "man-eater". When in fact it is us, the people who are constantly moving into the forests and claiming the animals' land for our own, we hunt an animal down for being itself and then flaunt how tiger is our national animal.

[@anushkamalviya7746]

@@poojahazra7000 Okay that was really a inhumane act & any of the animal lover in India was supporting that...Just because some shitty CM did this that doesn't mean all the people in India are like him..... Now the whole Maharashtra & even India knows that which kind of people we are making our leaders...

[@poojahazra7000]

Totally agreed. The population of our country ensures that humans often invade these spaces which belong to animals. It always makes me emotional if an animal is killed just because it is being itself

[@mdshadmanwasifkhan4482]

The difference between petting and holding cubs for entertainment and petting and holding cubs professionally for educational purpose or to raise awareness can be seen here. Clearly DAVE is giving every kind of freedom to the cub here. If it doesnt wanna be in Dave's hands, he let's him go and respects whatever he is doing! So yeah, petting, holding or cuddling with cubs isn't cruelty if it's done the right way and if it actually does want affection from the "HOOMAN"! Clearly the cub here was enjoying everyone's company, in case you say it was drugged, think again... it was still very feisty and excited even tho it stayed calm!

Just watched The Conservation Game documentary on Stan and many of the big cats that are on these talk shows are actually going to real conservation projects. They're being passed around and rented at parties and dying young due to stress and mistreatment. Many of the other so-called "conservationists" that are appearing on talk shows, breakfast shows and late night television don't know where these animals go after they stop being cute babies and grow to full size. Seriously everybody, watch this documentary. It has changed the way i think about parading animals on tv. I love seeing these majestic animals as much as anyone else and would love to cuddle one but it is not natural and it is cruel to them to be constantly handled by different people, especially when they're so young and vulnerable.
