We have never been to a zoo like this one before! The kids were able to ride a camel and get kissed by a seal! They even let you pay to feed tons of the animals by hand. Colt and Kylie REALLY enjoyed it Colt has developed a love for white tigers since we moved to Asia. We bought him mama and baby white tiger stuffed animals for Christmas because that is what he wanted So, when we went to the zoo here in our city at the beginning of this month, naturally he wanted to see the white tigers!
Imagine our surprise when we saw this in the news this week!! – –

A female Bengali white tiger drags a man by his shirt after the man climbed into the enclosure, at a zoo in Chengdu, Sichuan province on Sunday.
A deranged Chinese man was nearly mauled by a Bengal white tiger when he leapt into its enclosure at a zoo and began leaping and shouting.
Witnesses at the zoo in Chengdu, Sichuan on Sunday morning said the 20-year-old scaled the enclosure’s fence and began provoking the tigers and smearing a red substance on a glass pane inside the pen, according to reports.
