Hua Hin Zoo
Hua Hin Zoo is a small facility just on the outskirts of the town. Reports stated that Hua Hin Zoo had four tigers. However, their had been reports in 2015 of a raid on the zoo with tigers being confiscated by the Department of National Parks (DNP) due to permits and licensing issues. Nonetheless, the facility was visited to see if there were still tigers residing there. There were not.
