Ever fancied playing a tug-of-war with tigers? Well, that’s exactly what you can do at Al Ain Zoo.
The new challenging experience pits brave visitors against one of the most powerful predators in the animal kingdom. Officials will ensure the “highest standards of safety for both visitors and animals”.
The competition is held once a day on the weekends and lasts for about 15 to 20 minutes. With a minimum of four and maximum of six competitors in each round, those aged over 12 are allowed to participate. The experience is offered for free to ticket holders. However, visitors will have to enquire about slot availability at the ticketing counter.
“All safety procedures and Covid-19 regulations are maintained at all times in order to make sure everyone is safe,” the zoo said in a press statement.
Visitors will also get to see other animals like lions, cheetahs and hyenas cheering on the contest.
