We spent this morning (the 29th) at a Siberian Tiger Park just outside the city. The park is home to hundreds of tigers as well as lions, cheetahs, jaguars, and leopards. I was under the impression that we would actually be mingling with and petting the tigers. However, they kept us in a caged van the whole time – which I decided was a good thing after watching them in action. We also paid a little extra to get a live chicken to feed the tigers.
Lessons learned:
- A chicken can only expect to stay alive for about .6 seconds in the presence of a tiger
- Tigers will jump on moving vehicles to catch flying birds
- The tigers only eat the meat of the chicken and leave the innards for the crows
- It would have been much cooler if we pooled our money with the rest of the people in our van to purchase a sheep or cow instead of a chicken
