There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

I did the behind the scenes Tiger Exhibit.

We got to feed a gigantic One horned Rhino, he was absolutely massive. Its insane to see an animal as tall as me at the shoulder and the length of a SUV.
He literally looks like a living Ford Explorer, its unreal.

We got to go where the Sumatran Tigers Sleep, one female was there and all the other were out in the exhibit.

I saw both the Africa and India Safari exhibit and we stopped behind the scenes of the India Portion and Fed a Blue Bull who cam over to us.

I saw White Rhino's, Giraffe, Cape Buffalo, different types of gazelle and goat in the africa exhibit.
I saw Nigale, One horned rhino, Guar, Gazelle, Sambar in the India exhibit.

Obviously the Rhinos rule the herbivore safaris, but the most aggressive animal at the entire park was the Guar, according to my guide.
The bull Guars horns are absolutely gigantic, they are so wide and long, its crazy.
All animals are female except for a single bull of each species, it would be to aggressive and dangerous if multiple bulls were there. So they sell them to other sanctuaries and zoos to keep the breeding process alive.



I didn't get to see the Male lion, only cubs, but the male lion there is almost 500lbs according to my zoologist guide.


All in all, I had to pay a little extra for the experience but it was well worth it.
I highly recommend it at least once.
