Out of Africa - Tigers



The are a number of tigers at the park. Yes, I know tigers are from Asia not Africa. I like tigers and therefore don't care about the accuracy of the name of the park.

One of the shows is great fun to watch. I don't have pictures because the camera was going to focus on the fence. The show is called Tiger splash. it involved a pool, two tigers, and about eight people. The announcer starts off with the don't do this at home message. I don't know about you but I don't have tigers or a pool at home so, no worries. Four of the people spend their time getting the tigers to run and pounce by running with balloon toys. The day we were there the two tigers were 2 year old males and one of them loved the pool. I think the sleeping tiger was one of the two.

It was mentioned that white tigers aren't born in the wild anymore. They made it sound like the dwindling tiger population was reason.
