Chiang Mai Tiger Kingdom Visit in Pictures

I would highly recommend visiting the tiger kingdom if you're up on Chiang Mai. All the tigers we seen and even stroked were all kept well and awake. These beautiful animals are kept safe and looked after here so well.

If you haven't read my previous blog STOP here... Go back and read it!

So the LoveTEFL team were at the tiger kingdom... Well some of us. Here's Amelia with the orange and black medium tiger. She is also trying to turn orange while we're here.

Here's Charlotte! A little nervous looking but we were too. This one was awake and moving (we were all a little nervous, you just can't see us because we're all behind the camera!)

The tiger being a little cheeky. Nicely captured even if I do say so myself! So the tiger was either sticking its tongue out because it was being cheeky or we all looked delicious (in my head I want to stick with the being cheeky theory!)

Me and my sunglasses first adventure out (not my first but my sunglasses). It was so soft and so cute! Give me a cat or a dog and I am not stroking that but a tiger... Why not!

Seeing these beautiful animals playing about made us a little nervous but also go awww.

So glad it was chewing on a bamboo stick and not a bone or else that would have been awkward.

Nap time! This was not Charlotte getting forty winks but the keeper told her to place her head on it. Well the tiger was asleep but its tail sure wasn't! She ended up with fur all over her... Lol

Not so asleep anymore.

The youngest of our group Olivia. Wide awake now aren't we little tiger!

My roomy Roseanne. Animals love her and she loves animals!

My turn. I was told by the keeper to lie in the little space behind it... It was not going to happen! So there was a lying on the tiger moment, just like Charlotte's, but it didn't make the cut on the blog.

And altogether now. These keepers knew what they we're doing with the tigers and the cameras.

Cute play fighting. There were moments where it was getting a little serious but I weren't breaking it up!

Here's lovely Callum. He is always smiling! The first to go near the adult tiger (Whose tail was going mental... Just not sure how asleep this tiger was!) 

And I thought I had big hands.

Obviously blog... So here's another one of me! This was a pregnant adult... Not a fat tiger like we all thought at first!

Meow!

An action shot of the tiger jumping around in the pool behind us. Totally drenching us in the process but what's a little water in the heat?

Well the keepers knew what they were doing with both the camera and tiger but just can't help think, why are the two people with the most meat on their body closest to the jumping tiger...?
