webfact Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 By Tanakorn Sangiam CHONBURI (NNT) - Two 2-year-old tiger cubs have become the center of attention at Khao Kheow Open Zoo this holiday season. The zoo is arranging special activities and celebrations for the New Year festival, including a countdown event. Khao Kheow Open Zoo in Chonburi Province is inviting everyone to greet a family of Indochinese tigers, including two 2-year-old brother and sister nicknamed Aa-ngoon and Melon. They are the latest additions to the family. The zoo’s promotional campaign for this holiday season centers around its big cat family to welcome 2022, which is the year of the Tiger according to Chinese astrology. Visitors can also come to the zoo to meet other animals such as the famous 56-year-old Mali, Thailand’s oldest hippopotamus. Another highlight of the zoo is a parade of 40 Humboldt penguins. Visitors can watch these adorable flightless birds up close. Khao Kheow Open Zoo is also arranging a countdown camping activity at a campsite by the lake within Khao Kheow mountains, along with the special Khao Kheow Night Zoo hours to allow visitors to observe the lives of nocturnal animals. -- © Copyright NNT 2022-01-01 - Whatever you're going through, the Samaritans are here for you - Follow ASEAN NOW on LINE for breaking COVID-19 updates 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrJ2U Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 Hopefully much better enclosures than 15-20 years ago. Does anyone remember the zoo in Pattaya (Dark Side) that had a Lion,Dog, and a huge pig in one cage. The story was they all grew up together since they were little. I personally can't stand zoo's. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikebell Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 I went to the Tiger zoo in Pattaya. My visiting farang family were distressed to learn of the cubs' fate when they stopped being cute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xylophone Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 A friend of mine in my youth had a Tiger Cub (Triumph) and it was a lovely little bike, if not a bit unreliable at times! Similarities perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
