Thai monks, kept 40 dead cubs in temple freezer!!

By Anonymous -

When Thai officials cracked open a freezer in the Buddhist monastery’s kitchen on Wednesday, they were greeted by a blast of chill air and an unnerving sight: the bodies of 40 frozen tiger cubs.




The Tiger Temple, in Kanchanaburi, Thailand, is far from a typical Buddhist temple. Until wildlife authorities took action this week, more than 100 tigers lived under the monks’ care, attracting tourists en masse as well as controversy.

Though officials were surprised to find the cubs’ corpses during this week’s investigation, the incident had a long-burning wick. The temple’s two-decades-long history is marred by accusations that the monks bred the tigers for profit, hid missing animals and fueled the wildlife trade.
“We don’t know why the temple decided to keep these cubs in the freezer,” Anusorn Noochdumrong, an official with Thailand’s Department of National Parks, told the Associated Press. “We will collect these carcasses for DNA analysis.”

Doomed Satellite Sends Back Spectacular Images.

A doomed Japanese satellite captured the first ever images of one of the largest weather systems in the universe before it spun itself to pieces. A software glitch caused the X-ray satellite Hitomi to lose contact with ground crews just six weeks after its launch in February. Rescue attempts were later abandoned, but before it died it managed to map a clump of galaxies known as the Perseus cluster. Superheated gas - or plasma - fills the spaces between galaxies within a cluster, but it is usually difficult to detect. But because the Hitomi satellite was sensitive to X-ray wavelengths, it managed to pick up the cluster's faint glow. "We're not just looking at some little fluffy atmosphere," said Andrew Fabian from the Hitomi team, "There's nothing like it." The pictures show a galactic tug-of-war taking place, with the hot gas blasted out by a supermassive black hole - which escapes the gravitational pull of stars within the cluster. Th...
