On September 16, 2021, the Beijing News that Dragon Dream Safari is putting a price tag on petting tiger cubs: 50 RMB a time. In fact, in 2019, CBCGDF Media reported on the problem of the hotel tiger. This article is now shared as follows.
On May 1, 2019, CBCGDF volunteers found six Bengal White tigers in the lobby of Dragon Dream Hotel in Huzhou, Zhejiang Province.
The Bengal tiger, also known as the Royal Bengal tiger, is a tiger from a specific Panthera tigris tigris subspecies native to the Indian subcontinent. It is threatened by poaching, loss, and fragmentation of habitat and was estimated to comprise fewer than 2,500 wild individuals by 2011.
Bengal White Tiger, also known as Bengal White Tiger, or simply "White Tiger", is a variant of the Bengal Tiger. Due to a genetic mutation, the Bengal tiger's hair, originally orange with black stripes, has changed to white with black stripes. There are only about 210 white tigers left in the world.
Yet, of just over 200 white tigers in the world, the Dragon Dream Hotel has six. So, where do they originate from? Is it legal?
It is understood that the Dragon Dream Safari, and the Dragon Dream Hotel, are the same company. According to the information found by Tianyan APP, it seems to be mostly related to an organization called Shanghai Dragon Dream Tourism Investment (Group) Co., LTD.
It shows that Shanghai Dragon Dream Tourism Investment (Group) Co., Ltd. does not seem to have wildlife in its portfolio.

Further investigation by another CBCGDF volunteer revealed:
Three Bengal White Tigers have been seized from commercial vehicles in Huzhou.
Despite being three years apart, both of the above events take place in Huzhou. Is there a connection between the two occurrences, as CBCGDF speculates? As a result, we were intrigued:
(I) What happened to the three white tiger cubs received by Huzhou Terrestrial Wildlife Rescue Center in August 2016? Who is the recipient? What was the result of the investigation by the police and investigation department at that time? Was it legal or illegal possession/transportation?
(2) How old are the six albino Bengal White Tiger in the lobby of Dragon Dream Hotel in Huzhou, Jiangsu? Where does it come from? Which is the examination and approval unit? What is the approval number?
(3) Dragon Dream hotel confined six giant white tigers in such a narrow space. How is their health?
