A wealthy Chinese businessman has been jailed for 13 years
for hiring poachers to kill three tigers so he could eat their penises and
drink their blood. Xi Pat had 'a
special hobby of grilling tiger bones, boning tiger paws, storing tiger penis,
eating tiger meat and drinking tiger blood alcohol'.
A court heard he ate the genitals and drank the animals'
blood before giving the rest of the meat to his business friends and partners.
The court also heard he organised three separate trips last year
for 15 people, including himself, to Leizhou in the southern province of
Guangdong, where they bought tigers for a 'huge amount of money' that were
killed and dismembered as they watched.
One of the group filmed the entire process of a tiger
slaughter with his mobile phone. The footage was later obtained by police.
Police then seized eight pieces of animal meat and bones
from a refrigerator in Xi Pat's home, some of which were later identified as
tiger parts, including a penis.
The police report added exotic meats including gecko and
cobra were also found in the fridge.
A court in Guangxi convicted the 15 of 'illegally
transporting precious and endangered wild animal products'.
The court heard Xi Pat insisted on the big cats being caught
alive so when they were killed they could be bled and he was able to drink the
blood.
