Several other new attractions to be included into the Tiger Zoo’s regular program and for the Queen’s birthday celebrations include;

-          Piglets being fed by the female tiger

-          Piglets and tiger cubs playing together

-          Photograph opportunities with tiger cubs and the baby crocodiles

The Tiger Zoo is very popular with local and travelling Thai families as the Tiger is a very significant animal in their culture.
