Jaromir takes his tigers for walks in public. OLOMOUC, CZECH REPUBLIC: MEET THE exotic pet owner who takes his six-hundred-pound pet TIGERS for walks in public. In one image, the exotic pet owner held the leash of a tiger as they both crossed the road. In another, one big cat snuggled up to his owner for a quick selfie capturing the unique bond between the two. Photographer, David Tesinsky (30) from Prague, Czech Republic, captured these images of the exotic pet and circus owner, Jaromir Joo (65) in Olomouc, Czech Republic. Jaromir, who owns around eighty animals, runs his family's controversial circus which has been operating for several generations. Not one to shy away from the public eye, Jaromir is often seen walking his tigers down suburban streets much to the surprise of onlookers. Many countries have banned the use of wild animal based circus acts including the UK on January 20, 2020. However, Jaromir tours his circus across Europe in countries that are yet to pass the law. According to Big Cat Rescue, 98 per cent of all big cats die within two years of being taken into captivity as they require adequate space, nutrition, and health care. Purchasing an exotic cat and enclosure can cost upwards of £20,000. / David Tesinsky
