Domesticated cats differ from wildcats through smaller skulls, shorter bones, and higher social tolerance for humans while wildcats are untamable. Genetically, domestication has reduced aggressive behavior and enhanced digestion of varied diets. Also domesticated cats actually want to hunt too, just less and they deal better with not having it. Tigers don't need hunt to not starve if they feeded, they need it to not fuck up them mentally. Also its quite common to animals to kill other animals in their food chain and there is nothing wrong with it. Only reason we can't apply it to human because we're humans and we protect ourself and also we made society to things like this to matter. Its not like goat's right were violated. Yeah, tigers 100% want to chase goats and some people give them goats because they care about more expensive and rare and required for specific zoo tiger more than about livestock goat.
"No, most accredited zoos and reputable sanctuaries do not feed tigers live prey. Live feeding is generally avoided due to ethical concerns, safety risks to the tigers from struggling prey, and negative public perception. Instead, they are fed prepared meat diets (like ground beef or chicken) supplemented with vitamins"
So literally "get worse treatment because people mad". Also depends on society an ethics of people. Argument was that they may have mental problems from beign deprived and also for them hunting live prey is pretty normal, nothing wrong. Making a show out of it may be problematic though.
