Tiger Island (Dreamworld)
Tiger Island is a wildlife attraction in the Dreamworld amusement park on the Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia. This exhibit houses for both the Bengal and Sumatran tiger species. The tigers have been raised within the compound and are free to roam and interact with the visitors in the amusement park.
Tiger Island opened in 1995 as one of only two interactive tiger exhibits in the world. The exhibit featured various locations for the tigers to live, swim and play. Three years later, in October of 1998, Dreamworld welcomed their first litter of four Bengal tiger cubs consisting of Rama, Sita, Sultan and Taj. In 2006, the first litter of Sumatran tiger cubs was born featuring Indah and Rahni. A nursery and smaller tiger enclosure were constructed to showcase the younger tigers before being released into the main exhibit.
On June 20, 2012, Mohan, one of Dreamworld's original Bengal tigers, died after a battle with kidney disease. Mohan was born on November 2, 1994, in the United States before being transferred to Dreamworld for the opening of Tiger Island. When he arrived he was known as the "King of Tiger Island".
In 2015, two litters were born to Raja (father) and Nika (mother). On July 25, Kai, a male cub, was born, while two female cubs were born on November 29, to the same mother and father. Later during a competition in conjunction with Channel 7's Sunrise Morning Show, the two female cubs were named Akasha and Adira.
On February 19, 2016, two white tiger cubs were put on public display in a temporary quarantine enclosure, found in Ocean Parade, in front of Zombie Evilution. These two cubs, who were later to be named Kiko and Kali, were flown in from Japan under Dreamworld's partnership arrangement with Hirakawa Zoo in Kagoshima City.
On February 29, 2016, the Tiger Island area closed for refurbishment. It re-opened on Sunday, September 18, 2016, with designs by Jamie Durie.
This section shows a list of tigers that were present at the park, but are no longer there.
Tiger presentations are performed twice daily in the main exhibit. Guests can watch as the tigers perform feats which showcase their agility. During the presentation, the tigers climb 20-foot (6.1 m) trees and jump up to 10-foot (3.0 m) into the air. In 2013, Cub College featured some of the younger tigers' performances.
