Dusit Zoo Welcomes Newborn Animals

Dusit Zoo has welcomed two white tiger cubs and six baby flamingos. The zoo also allows the general public to give these newborn creatures their new names.

Mr. Sophon Damnui, the Director of the Zoological Park Organization, revealed that two white tiger cubs and six baby flamingos are the new members of Dusit Zoo. The eight-year-old female white tiger named Erika and the 11-year-old male white tiger named Khan were the parents of these two white tiger cubs. The couple had earlier given birth to six white tigers.

Meanwhile, Dusit Zoo has six new baby flamingos, and it is known that the flamingos do not lay eggs often. However, with the zoo’s ideal natural environment, many flamingos were able to lay their eggs here. At the moment, there are 58 flamingos in Dusit Zoo.

The newborn animals have received warm welcome from the general public, and the Zoological Park Organization allows the public to give them their names.

Look here

In my opinion it is one of the worst zoos I have had the misfortune to visit. Sure it is cheap, but the animals are in crowded cages and look tatty. The best one in Thailand is Khaw Kheow open zoo where at least they can roam a bit.

Poor beasts., although they must be doing something right if they are breeding?
