We thought we had established that gender reveal parties were dumb, if not downright dangerous, but apparently, not everyone is on the same page. Take, for example, a couple of expectant parents in India, who recklessly recruited a tiger to partake in this un-woke baby shower ritual.

“This isn’t something to be proud of. These animals are not pets,” another added.
And we thought it was cruel to keep big cats in the zoo…
