There are a few theories. One is , they are only small enough to "pet" for a few months. So , you have to keep the breading process going to have enough small cubs to use. Then, what do you do with them afterwards? Its not like a regular pet
The other is that by petting them, you are humanizing them which is bad for them and bad for us.
Ok, I got it. With regard to the first part, that's what Doc Antle does. Once they're too big to pet he kills them. The second part though kinda doesn't matter if they're in captivity. I guess you would want them accustomed to humans.

I'm not sure about that. The issue is if they're too accustomed to humans, they won't be scared of a human.
Then something happens, the tiger gets pissed and **** gets real very fast. It's why Saff lost her arm.
We have mountain lions in Tucson. They will keep their distance and be scared, even though they could easily kill a person. It's when they get too comfortable with humans that they're most dangerous, because they'll get close, and that's when the bad stuff happens.
