Brazilian family owns SEVEN tigers as pets

Some families have dozens of cars, some have houses all around the world, some have money, others don't what The Borges' family own in Brazil isn't something you would see often... they own 7 tigers, as if that isn't enough, they own 2 lions too!
To crown it all up, the family and their pets live together.


It all started when Aryas Borges (the father) rescued two tigers from a circus in 2005, ever since then, they have developed a soft spot for this big cats, he and his three daughters have managed to domesticate the cats by taking care of them and feeding them as normal cats, this has kept their killer instinct at bay!


This passion of theirs for the wild animals has not been without opposition from the public and wildlife specialists who believe that this hobby of the brazilian family is a threat to people's safety. There have been different cases of such pets turning against their owners, as of now, the family is still safe, lets hope it remains that way...
