Authorities to Justin Bieber: Stop taking pictures with exotic cats

Posted
and last updated
After posing with exotic animals on two separate occasions for pictures that ended up online, Justin Bieber has been issued a very bizarre warning.
 
The Toronto Animal Service informed the singer he must stop posing with big cats.
 
The warning comes after photos surfaced of Bieber cozying up with a tiger at his dad's engagement party in April -- and then in May, with a white lion cub backstage at a show.
 
TMZ reported that the animal service informed Bieber it's illegal to have any type of exotic cat within city limits, issuing a stern warning for any future visits. 
 
In fact, taking pictures with the animals is enough to have them seized, the TAS said.
 
The animals were allegedly a courtesy of the Bowmanville Zoo, an organization PETA has subsequently attacked, criticizing, "No reputable animal-care facility lends out exotic animals for private parties and Instagram photos."
