Would you spend £2,000 to feed a tiger at Edinburgh Zoo?

“You don’t get to hand feed the tigers obviously,” said Lindsay Ross, Edinburgh Zoo’s events and experiences manager.

“You use tongs, which are similar to a litter pick and it’s bits of meat from a bucket.

“You go to where people wouldn’t be allowed because we have multiple stand off areas before the last fence but you go with the keeper so its supervised to make sure nobody puts fingers through the fence.”

She insisted the whole experience was secure and visitors would still be outside the main enclosure.

“It’s amazing, they are so majestic up close. It’s amazing just the size of their heads and things.”

During the tour, visitors can also feed Asiatic lions Bindee, eight, and Jayendra, 15.

The bespoke tours include meeting four different species of animals of your choice.

The tours for two also see visitors being able to go into some cages to stroke or feed the animals.
