Reality Check: Wildlife Tourism is a Cruel Industry

TripAdvisor profits from cruelty to wild animals. As owner of the world’s largest travel site they could help end wildlife suffering, but contribute to it instead. Demand they stop promoting and selling tickets to cruel wildlife tourist attractions today. With annual income reaching up to $1,500M, TripAdvisor’s influence on the tourism industry is immense. But TripAdvisor is profiting through the sale of tickets to venues that force wild animals to entertain tourists. It sells these tickets through Viator, a travel and tour booking company it acquired in 2014.

Last year The University of Oxford reviewed 188 wildlife venues featured on TripAdvisor and found that 75% of the different types of attractions involve wildlife cruelty. No wild animal should be beaten and abused for our entertainment. Right now up to 550,000 animals are suffering at the hands of a cruel industry.

Over 330,000 people have demanded TripAdvisor stops profiting from cruelty to wild animals. Add your voice to make sure TripAdvisor finally listens.
