Sri Racha Tiger Zoo

Overview

1.8

Located outside of Pattaya, Sri Racha Tiger Zoo is predominantly patronised by the Asian community and is full of ‘cutsie’ gimmicks and weird photo ops. It is truly awful, hands down the worst facility in Thailand. According to the staff there were 400 tigers but interestingly, whilst there are literally 100 cubs born in a year, this number never seems to fluctuate. Back in 2005, 100 tigers were even shipped out of this facility to China. The whole place is tiger exploitation, from tiny cubs sitting screaming in tiny cages, piglets feeding from a tigress, tormenting of starving tigers with lures of food, shooting ranges to give food and of course the circus show.  Any enclosure that is there is barren and cement floored.
