Safari World, Everland Theme Park

Having decided to see Safari World, we were prepared to queue and wait since it was highly recommended.

We had to wait for 70 minutes before we could get near the entrance to Safari World. There we were dismayed to see another sign indicating that we still had to wait for another 50 minutes before we could go on safari.

Once we entered the building, we had to queue along a walkway on the walls of which were pictures of the white tigers that are living inside the safari park.Here are some of them.

Finally we boarded a special bus that would take us through Safari World where we would see the wild animals at large, not caged as in zoos. Most of them were relaxed or having their afternoon siesta.

Here are the gorgeous white tigers. Usually what we see are the tawny colored or yellow colored tigers with black stripes. So it was a real treat to see these white tigers with their black stripes.

We spotted more lions.

Bears were what we saw next.

Don't they look soft and cuddly? However I'm sure you wouldn't want to be hugged by one, would you?

This bear has been trained to click his jaws to the rhythm of the bus driver's song. It was most entertaining. At the end of his performance, he was rewarded with food thrown by the driver and which he caught expertly in his mouth.

It was worth the long wait to see these wild animals in their separate enclosures and I would also recommend this to anyone who visits Everland.
