A Neat Little Zoo – Phuket’s Crocodile Farm and Tiger World

  • i
Phuket, the central city of Phuket Island located on the south side of Thailand, is a hot tourist destination. Due to its wonderful tropical climate, beautiful beaches and attractions, Phuket is a wonderful location to spend a relaxing vacation, basking in the warmth of this lovely island.

Of the many attractions in the environs, one that is not widely known yet has an element of excitement in it is the Crocodile Farm and Tiger World. Located off the centre of Phuket Town, this miniature zoo is a great place to see many different animals including a few animal shows.

Although there has been some speculation as to why the Crocodile and Tiger World has not gained greater popularity, it still lives up to its name by having many crocodiles and tigers. In the many pits at this zoo one can see many crocodiles basking in the sun, flashing their razor sharp teeth. One of the highlights of the zoo is the crocodile feeding time, where the pits are instantaneously transformed into a feeding frenzy as the crocodiles rush and gobble up the fish that are tossed into the pit. There is also a Crocodile Show which is displayed at the Crocodile Farm and Tiger World. Of course it would be incorrect to call this zoo the Crocodile Farm and Tiger World if there were no tigers, therefore one can also see a few majestic tigers as well, and one may even be afforded the opportunity of touching the younger tigers at the zoo. There are also many primates in the zoo such as a few playful monkeys and a couple of gibbons who are known to be rather mischievous! In addition to these creatures, there are also several birds on display, including ostriches and colourful parrots.

 The Crocodile Farm and Tiger World is not the best known attraction in Phuket, but if you wish to see massive crocodiles, majestic tigers and many other creatures, pay a visit to the Crocodile Farm and Tiger World.
