Si
Racha Tiger Zoo
At
the Si Racha Tiger Zoo, 8 km east of town, you can hold a
baby tiger in your arms, or have your picture taken with a
tame crododile. The Zoo covers more than 40 hectares and teems
with wildlife, including more than 100,000 crocodiles and
one of the world's largest groups of Bengal tigers, more than
130 of them. The Zoo maintains that it is the most successful
program for breeding tigers in captivity anywhere in the world.
Circus shows include pig racing, ostrich racing, and female
performers who wrestle with crocodiles or cover themselves
with scorpions. Try the crocodile satay or crocodile soup
at the restaurant. Open daily from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm.
