Attention thrill seekers! Orana’s Tiger Den Experience is a thrilling opportunity to go behind the scenes into our tiger dens with our expert carnivore keepers. Meet our majestic big cats closer than ever before and learn about how we work with these incredible animals. Witness the size and power of these amazing animals and see just how large their teeth and claws really are.
Your behind the scenes tour may involve a training session for medical checks, Reggie slobbering over snacks or watching him interacting at an enrichment session.
Take in the awe inspiring sights (and smells) of being up close to Reggie during this exciting experience. This is a must do experience whilst in Christchurch!
