About
Tiger Kingdom Chiang Mai is a tourist attraction in northern Thailand where visitors can interact with tigers. The park is currently under investigation following the deaths of 72 tigers within a two-week period this month across two of its facilities. The deaths are believed to be caused by a highly contagious virus, though the exact cause is still being determined. Government officials are working to contain the outbreak by disinfecting enclosures and preparing to vaccinate surviving tigers. The incident has brought attention to the welfare and health management practices of captive tiger populations in tourist attractions, raising concerns about disease control and animal care standards.
