Tiger exhibit at Shepreth 05/04/10

A basic, small but not tiny, grassy paddock, with a large set of climbing platforms.

View from the viewing platform on top of the nightquarters, with the lemur island and ibis aviary visible behind.

Looks quite a nice enclosure. Do they still have the two female Bengal tigers?

There are two tigers (didn't pay attention to the genders, I'm afraid). They are 'Bengals' (i.e. zoo tigers!).

Thanks Maguari. How much of the enclosure is shown here? Is the Den/Indoor area Big?

This is probably a little under half of the length of the exhibit (obviously it extends right up to the bottom of the fence you can see the top of where I was standing). The indoor area was pretty unremarkable - adequate but not oustanding.

They have one male tiger 'Rana' and one female 'Amba'.
Both however came from Paradise Wildlife Park and are descended from Circus Animals (Think they came from a circus or something) and therefore are not suitable to breed.
