Captain on cruise ship warns against going ashore in Mexico
A cruise is an unforgettable experience for many passengers. But it’s not just the world’s oceans that are to be explored; the cruise ships are heading to a fixed destination. The cruise ship “Carnival Radiance,” for example, visits many places along the Mexican Riviera and the American West Coast. “Unforgettable vacation days on board” are promised, as the website says.
However, passengers should exercise caution when going ashore in the Mexican city of Ensenada, according to a note in a Reddit post. “We have an important message for everyone disembarking in Ensenada,” passengers are warned on the note in the cabins. “You may encounter tiger cubs that can be handled at restaurants and other attractions in Ensenada Harbor. Sometimes other activities are also offered with them.” Another cruise ship got caught in a monster hurricane.
Warning about tiger cubs – Reddit users are horrified
As the captain of the “Carnival Radiance” says, any interaction with the tiger cubs and the people associated with them should be avoided: “For the public Health, safety and environmental aspects, we recommend that you avoid anything like this at all costs. Thank you for your understanding.” The cruise ship makes it clear that such attractions have nothing to do with those organized by the crew.
The Reddit post received over 26,000 upvotes and almost 900 comments in just one day. “We’ve had that before. We were told that the tiger cubs are drugged to make them tame. “It’s really very sad,” one user shared his experience. Another added that the tiger cubs are likely to be killed before they reach adulthood. “It cost $20 15 years ago. We did it back then because we didn’t know how bad it was,” one user wrote.
