Poll: Should I pay?

[FPRob]

Is this a good deal?

Feeding, fussing, playing with a full grown male white Bengal Tiger called Blizzard including photographs of the experience (and I can shoot my own videos). Here he is...



...Anyway, Hammerton Zoolological Park in Cambridge charge £185 (€274 $351) per person for this priviledge and I thought it might make a real nice gallery for the cat site which would be a bonus.

Would you?

Re: Poll: Should I pay?

I just found out, they will not let me take my digital camera or DVD recorder into the Tiger pen.

Would you still pay the amount obaove for this opportunity? They will proivde me with a single souvenir photo.

Not a cat in hells chance would I part with that sort of money for that! But that's me. LOL

That's an awful lot of money, and all you get is one souvenir photo? If you have that sort of money spare and this is something you've always wanted to do then go for it, but I think it's expensive.

LOL I almost suggested save the money and put it towards a holiday to India and take in a safari type tour! Great minds, eh Bee?

Re: Poll: Should I pay?

ahh yes but.... The cats in India will eat me without a second thought, at least Blizzard is used to humans, plus its at least 4 times the cost for a return ticket to India plus the other expenses :)

It isn't all about the photos although getting my cameras in would have been a bonus as far as my website goes.

The money doesnt really bother me, its about the experience and the money will goto to zoo animal upkeep which cant be a bad thing.

I think I might still have a go at this, even without the pics and video I still get to feed the beast.

Re: Poll: Should I pay?

Re: Poll: Should I pay?

Got to admit Bee, an interesting country to visit for sure, along with Egypt. Both would be high on my list of places to go but...

Hmmmmfph :S No holidays this year, too many other things to spend my money on LOL

Re: Poll: Should I pay?

I would do it without even thinking twice.. The white tiger is majestic.. In my books, I would be willing to favor a photo with that creature than an entire film with Bush, Blair, Howard and a dozen bimbo models..

I SAY.. GO FOR IT.

I will, I think I definitely will and I totally agree, wouldnt have my photo taken with Bush or Blair.

Got to ask though Carlos.... How come the white Tiger is so majestic and beautiful but the whale is worth kiing simply because it tastes good? Mate, I consider you a friend on this forum honestly.. I am only asking because I cannot get the way you are thinking LOL :) :) :)

Sorry, what I mean is... Would your view on Tigers being majestic change if you had tried them as a delicacy and enjoyed it?

heheheheeeeee <controversial Rob strikes again> LOL

That's a fair question Rob.. And although it may appear conflicting, my statements have never been so in harmony... Just like the Tiger, the whale too is a majestic creature.. they both deserve respect and appreciation for the role they play in keeping this world, or what has left of it anyway, in tact.. In the same manner I respect the whale, even though consumed by humans, I respect the Tiger, even though it is responsible for many deaths of humans, especially in the India Forest Villages.. They are both majestic and mighty, it just so happens that they are positioned differently on the food chain.. The whale can be eaten.. The tiger is sometimes forced to eat humans.. They both have good reasons.. one is a consumable kind of meat, the other has been invaded by humans, who so arrogantly, but stupidly, put themselves on display as easy prey for a hungry beast.
