Tiger Kingdom
One of the first things you are pulled toward when you get to
Chiang Mai are all the different options to meet and greet exotic animals. The
taxi walls are covered in pamphlets enticing you to see elephants, snakes,
monkeys, crocodiles, jungle cats, you name it. After our first week in Chiang
Mai we decided on Tiger Kingdom. After going we heard that it gets quite
crowded, with hour long wait times but we didn’t have any problems at all. We
entered the pen with the baby tigers about ten minutes after we arrived. The
two we played with are three-month-old twins named Pepsi and Sprite. I asked
the trainer if he’d just made those names up but he told me he didn’t. The cubs
were playful, cuddly, and convinced us that if we get a pet together it should
probably be a tiger.
