Tiger Kingdom


There is a place called Tiger kingdom in Chang Mai.



They have a great deal of tigers and you can hang out with them.  You pay and go in the cages with them and pet them and take pictures.  I decided to see the smallest tigers and the biggest tigers.  





Baby tigers: 









                                                                              Biggest tigers:










They have workers there to help and they sedate a lot of them.  It honestly made me feel really sad for the tigers.  Yet at the same time is was a really cool experience being so close to the tigers and getting to touch them and lay on them.  We saw some wrestling, playing in the water, and pouncing on each other in one of the enclosures and they seemed really happy so that made me feel a little better.  I chose to go in and see and touch the smallest and biggest tigers.  Those creatures are beautiful!  It was unreal, thrilling, and a little scary being so close to them.  One of the little baby tigers was wrestling with one of the workers.  The tiger was jumping and nibbling on the worker.  The worker got up and left.  The tiger was still being feisty and playful.  When the worker left the baby tiger jumped and nipped the next closest person which just so happened to be Stevie.  It didn’t break her skin, but certainly caught her off guard.  We all had a good laugh about that.  Not many people get to say that they’re been bit by a tiger.
