JAKARTA - DKI Jakarta Governor Pramono Anung admitted that one of the tigers in Ragunan Wildlife Park (TMR), South Jakarta, which went viral because it looked thin, was his animal. Pramono emphasized that he had been directly monitoring the process of feeding the tiger and did not find any problems.

It's a tiger that happens to belong to me personally. So once again, it's my personal tiger. So far, I've been participating in this," said Pramono in North Jakarta, Tuesday, November 18.

Pramono said he would directly check the condition of the animals in Ragunan in the near future, especially the tigers that were recently discussed by netizens.

"So this week I will go there. Maybe the tiger misses me," he said.

He appealed to the public to check the truth of the information before spreading accusations, including the issue that Ragunan officers brought home animal feed so that it affected the physical condition of the animal.

"Many were circulating yesterday, sorry, it's actually not in Ragunan. Now it's easy to check," said Pramono.

TMR was previously in the public spotlight after accusations of theft of feed that coincided with the viral video of a thin tiger on social media. One of the uploads accusing officers of bringing home feed meat was made by the Threads andini.melda account.

The TMR manager then met the account owner to ask for clarification. In the video uploaded to RagunanZoo's official Instagram account on Monday. Melda apologized and admitted that her comments were not based on evidence.

"I would like to clarify and apologize to the Ragunan Wildlife Park, to the leadership and staff, in connection with my previous comments regarding the Ragunan Zoo officers who allegedly brought 10 kilos of beef and 10 chicken," he said.

He admitted that the comment appeared spontaneously after seeing a video of a tiger looking thin.

"The statement is only based on my personal assumptions without any guarantable evidence and information," he said.
