Thailand Zoo #1 (From Dion)


ride elephants, originally uploaded by bucklesw1.

Taken at a zoo 50 miles south of Bangkok,Thailand.
Any patron can buy bananas and hand feed them to the elephants. No supervision in sight.
The cat compounds used to have only the plexiglas panels but now have some ugly bars and electric wires right in the patrons view. The cats do have lots of space though.
Because of low tourist numbers, the staff has been cut by 20%.
