Cruel zookeepers have been filmed stabbing elephants with sharp sticks and forcing majestic tigers to pose with tourists.
New footage acquired by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) shows zookeepers engaged in cruel practices and keeping animals in cramped cages.
The footage was reportedly filmed at the Samutprakarn Crocodile Farm and Zoo in Pak Nam in the central Thai province of Samut Prakan.
Keith Guo, PETA Asia press officer for China, told Asia Wire:"Between 2012 and 2017, the largest number of tourist arrivals in Thailand has come from China.
"We contacted major Chinese tourism agencies and all of them offered tickets to that zoo.
"It's a shame that so many Chinese people go there, but only see the cruel tricks."
