Fine with the tiger, but did he have to post it?

Justin Bieber loves animals. But as much as he enjoys the furry friends, he always seems to get in trouble when he's around them. While celebrating his dad's engagement in Toronto, the Purpose singer was hanging with a tiger that was brought in for the event. Since Justin is pretty open with a huge chunk of his life, he naturally posted a pic of himself with the animal on Instagram. 

As soon as he posted it, PETA blasted him for posting a photo of an animal that had reportedly been abused.

"What Justin and other party guests probably don’t know is that Michael Hackenberger, the owner of that zoo, was recently charged with five counts of cruelty to animals because of PETA’s undercover footage, which shows him viciously whipping a young tiger during a “training” session and then bragging about it. Hackenberger has supplied tigers for films such as Life of Pi and The Interview." the animal rights organization posted a statement on its website.

PETA ended the post with, "We’re calling on Justin and his family never to use animals as selfie props or party entertainment again."
