Cohchrane Polar Bear Habitat - Swim With The Polar Bears

The polar bear is the largest land carnivore as well as one of the most ferocious. In the award winning Polar Bear Habitat and Heritage Village located the little town of Cochrane in Northern Ontario Canada, people can experience a once in a life time outdoor swim with polar bears. What separates the people from the beast are bulletproof and shatterproof glass that’s almost 9 centimetres wide, enough for protection against hostile actions from the polar bear. An experience to get up so close to these magnificent creatures would definitely entice enthusiastic adventurers.

The Tiger Temple In Thailand

The Tiger Temple or Wat Pha Luang Ta Bua is a Theravada Buddhist temple in Thailand and has been a sanctuary for many endangered animals including several tigers that walk around freely once a day and can be petted by tourists. The temple received several tiger cubs where the mothers had been killed by poachers. As of 2007, over 21 cubs have been born at the temple and the total number of tigers is about 12 adult tigers and 4 cubs.

The tigers are tamed by being fed with cooked meat to avoid giving them a taste for blood. The staff keep the tigers under control and the abbot will intervene if the tiger gets agitated. They are treated as family members in the temple and visitors are asked to give a donation if they want to take photos with the tigers.
