What happens on the day?
Upon your arrival you will receive a health and safety briefing from your experienced animal keeper. You will learn about the preparation of the meat and head over to either the Lion or Tiger Enclosure for feeding time. The animal will be in his enclosure with you on the other side of a (super strength) fence.
You’ll place the meat through a gap and the animal will take it from you. After you are done you will receive some special souvenirs (a certificate and a goody bag - jute bag with a pen, magnet or Keyring and park literature) and can go about your day in the park with a sense of real achievement.

Tiger teeth
Fed one of the tigers, got to pass 6 pieces of meat into the grateful mouth of a amur tiger. Keeper was great, she explained all about the cats, their diet and behaviour. One of the best experiences ever, well worth the cost. Highly recommended.

Best birthday present!
This was purchased for my partners birthday. Paradise wildlife park was a lovely place, we had a wander around the zoo before feeding the cat of his choice. The zoo keeper who took us on the experience was lovely and gave us a tour on what she does day to day for the cats, also informing us of what all the cats are like. My partner had the best experience hand feeding a big cat, feeling the breath and the whiskers on each feed. Experience of a lifetime!

Everyone should experience this
Prior to my choice of feeding a Bengal Tiger we were shown around the areas where the public never see, such as the feed prep shed, by Aaron the keeper, who has known this White Tiger since he went to France to collect him, Aaron's fondness for this Tiger called "Baikal" is very obvious and made the experience all the better, Having been shown how not to lose my fingers I then fed this "Magnificent Jungle animal", which despite spending his life behind bars still looks dignified, thank you both

Amazing experience!
A great experience so up close and personal with the big cats, I personally chose the tigers! The free entry to the park was also a nice touch and although it's small it's a lovely place.

Big cat feed.
It was a fantastic experience and a dream to be able to get close to a white tiger. I could actually appreciate the size of these wonderful animals. The keeper that looked after me was very helpful and knowledgeable as he had raised the tiger from 7 months old. It was a day I will never forget and I found it very emotional too. Would highly recommend this experience.
