Sriracha Tiger Zoo started taking care of tigers in 1982, where at the time the zoo obtained four couples of tigers from the Chiang Mai Zoo. Sriracha Tiger Zoo chose to raise tigers because of the preventing objective. In the past, there were a lot of tigers in Asia, which can be seen as a trademark of Asia, but at the present, there are significantly less than before. With the main objective, Sriracha Tiger Zoo can also earn information and educate those who are interested in animal study. At the present there are more than 400 tigers in Sriracha Tiger Zoo.
