We often see on TV that some wild animals will treat humans as their closest companions after they have been with them for some time.


It seems to us that wild animals also understand human kindness and have a sense of gratitude.


So if a person raises a tiger cub from a young age, will it attack its owner?


To answer this question, any speculation is not convincing, only the people who have raised tigers know best.


For example, Tyson. One of the greatest and most recognizable heavyweight boxing champions in human history.


As a young man, Tyson felt that only raising the king of all animals was worthy of his temperament and stature. Therefore, he once kept three tigers.


Tyson eventually abandoned the three tigers, some of which were resold and some sent to the zoo. He publicly admitted he was wrong to have kept the tigers in his house, as they could have killed him at any time. He noted that even when playing, tigers can inadvertently kill you and that they can never be fully tamed. In 1992, Tyson purchased a white patterned tiger cub for $71,000. Within two years, the tigers had grown to adulthood and the cost of keeping them was quite high; Tyson gave Kenya a monthly maintenance fee of $4,000 and the annual food expenses were estimated to be $200,000.


Tyson has a robust muscular body, his strength, reflexes, and physical agility are all extremely good. And this man, the strongest man in the human race, will always be at a disadvantage in the daily play with the tiger, and sometimes feel the threat from the tiger.


When the tiger was young, Tyson would often wrestle and fight with the tiger, but when the tiger became an adult, Tyson would rarely play with the tiger too intensely.


Because Tyson raised the tiger to 240 kg, heavier than two Tysons, and the tiger was so strong that Tyson slowly felt overwhelmed.


Although tigers are just playing, they don't know if their owners can take it, even if it doesn't show their sharp claws, they may break your bones.


Tyson says that even if the tiger doesn't get aggressive and just plays with you, sometimes it gets too excited and can put you to death.


And Tyson is slowly realizing that the feline cannot be completely domesticated, at least it likes to hit back at the owner which can never be changed, your cat hits you back, you think it's cute, but a tiger hits you back, you feel like you're dying.


And most of all, you have to worry that one day they can not control their temper, it is quite scary.


After all, people sometimes can't control themselves to do stupid things, and dogs that we have domesticated sometimes bite their masters. Not to mention a tiger that is not tamed and has more weight and aggressiveness than you.


Tyson said he still misses his tiger pet, but he now prefers to be with his dogs, who are more docile and safe.
