Samut Prakan Crocodile Farm & Zoo

Samut Prakan Crocodile Farm & Zoo

Bangkok has many tourist attractions such as Wat Pho and floating market, but a slightly unusual place where you can meet the representative animals of Thailand is "Samut Prakan Crocodile Farm & Zoo" in Samut Prakan Province, which is next to Bangkok. is.

It is about 1 hours (300 to 350B) by taxi from Bangkok city, and it is about 30 minutes (100 to 150B) by taxi from BTS Samrong Station.

It was originally a crocodile farm for getting crocodile leather, but now it is a zoo with a variety of animals including a crocodile, a tiger and an elephant, a bear, a hippopotamus, a peacock, a chimpanzee, an orangutan and an ostrich It is.

The facility is getting old and it is somewhat lonely, but in a short time I can touch with various animals, I think that it is a great place for people who like animals.

The biggest point is the crocodile show.

Samut Prakan Crocodile Farm & Zoo Crocodile ShowThe biggest sight of this garden is a crocodile show.

After a prayer that a veteran trainer prays for safety first, the show begins.

Sign a crocodile to open your mouth with a stick, put your hands in the open mouth of the crocodile, thrust your head and unfold a powerful show.

When the crocodile closes the widely opened mouth, "Cakhwit" makes a powerful and loud sound, so if it gets bitten it seems to have been injured seriously, and at the beginning I burned up.

Trainers sometimes play thrilling, sometimes comically and deciding a great skill, they have applauded applause and chips thrown from the audience and are showing excitement.

The show is held frequently, and it is held about 1 times at 1 time.

The world's largest crocodile

Samut Prakan Crocodile Farm & Zoo Crocodile Show Crocodile BreedingThis crocodile garden seems to boast of the number of alligator breeding in the world, there is a crocodile pond beside the stage of the crocodile show, there are countless crocodiles.

Since the crocodile is nocturnal, it hardly moves in the day, it is quiet, it occasionally opens the mouth, there are a few crocodiles that make awesome water sound and swim out.

There were places where the crocodiles of children were raised, but everyone gathered together in the sun, opened the mouth and was absent.

When it is a child crocodile, the size is small, so the figure that opens his mouth was cute.

In this garden you can also feed crocodiles, feed chicken over long bars and feed them.

The crocodiles who saw the chicken were quiet until a while ago, but they switched to the meal mode as if the switch had suddenly entered. I thought crocodiles that eat poultry with powerful teeth gently are still scary animals.

There is also an elephant show

As soon as the crocodile show is over, you will be able to catch the elephant show held in the square at the edge of the garden by moving on a mini truck.

People who know it will soon get on the truck, so when the garden is busy, the trolley seat may be full in no time.

At the show you can see the elephant kicking the ball, making a posing pose and drawing in painting. It is popular because you can touch elephants and feed, and the elephant ride experience is a little less than 3 minutes, but I think that it will be a good experience as I can ride cheaply with 50B.

You can also take a commemorative photo with a tiger

Crocodile, the second most popular elephant is the tiger.

There is a shooting center where you can take a commemorative photo with a big tiger at a place just in front of the entrance, and the price was cheap with 200B.

Even though the clerk was lying down, I felt the stature of a wild beast in the form of a tiger walking slowly to the right from time to time, to the right.

The cage of a tiger that is raised separately is near, and the tiger who gazes staring still here through the cage was powerful, and it was awesome.

Peacocks can be seen nearby

Samut Prakan Crocodile Farm & Zoo Crocodile Show PeacockA couple of peacocks were raised and were seasons, all the male peacocks shook their feathers and trembled, and I saw a sight that is courting on females.

At first only one buddy spreading feathers and then another peacock spreading feathers one after another, trembling feathers to appeal to the female as full as it sounds full.

I thought that it was very lucky that I could see the moment when many peacocks shook wings the same way.

Crocodile dishes in the restaurant!

In the restaurant inside the park there were ordinary Thai food and crocodile restaurants.

There were crocodile soup, crocodile steak, crocodile burger, and it was written as low calorie, low fat, but there was no courage to challenge, regrettably it passed in front of the shop.

Crocodile products shop is also

There was a crocodile shop at the entrance of the garden, bags, wallets, belts etc were sold.

This crocodile garden supplies crocodile leather all over the world, it is famous for being able to purchase cheap and quality crocodile products.

The export license is also issued for a fee, so please take a look at the store if you are interested.
